Conservatives and Republicans are smart enough to know that getting elected to a position of authority in one's own right is not nepotism and aren't making any such cries. Presidents are elected by the people, not appointed by their relatives. Nepotism, from the Latin for nephew, describes the practice of giving plum positions to relatives by the person in power, eg Robert Kennedy being appointed Attorney General by his brother, the president. “By the way, I find the “nepotism” cry coming from conservatives and Republicans to be quite disingenuous.”

She also smokes. Of course, if I was married to George I'd smoke like a fish just to annoy him. ;-) She seems like an awfully nice lady though. I don't know if that qualifies her to run for office, but it's as good as anything else I suppose. Laura, like the other Bush women, is pro-choice. She also smokes.

As I develop skill in repackaging and repositioning, perhaps I can deem myself a rove. In a thousand years or so.

It would be nice, but there are no more Thachers nor Reagans. But concerning Laura Bush. She isn't decisive enough. She probably makes GW stand around, but that isn't what I mean. She has to be a tough leader. Condi Rice doesn't fit that either. She would never run, but Karen Hughes would be ideal. Everyone talks about the influence the Chaney and Rove have (had), but now that Karen is going back to Texas, bush has lost a major asset.
