In case you missed Lou Dobbs tonight, let me be the first to tell you that you witnessed the complete severance of Republican strategist Ed Rollins from the Bush administration. Rollins, who until recently was an advisor to no less a GOP maven as Katherine Harris -- THE Katherine Harris of Florida recount fame (he ditched her campaign along with a slew of operatives a couple of weeks ago after failing to convince her to drop out of the Florida Senate race...) made the following comment about one Donald Rumsfeld, Secretary of Defense:
(Paraphrased) Cap Weingberger, whom we just recently buried, will, I think, go down in history as the man who rebuilt the American military. I think Don Rumsfeld will go down in history as the man who destroyed it. It doesn't get any worse than that.
Update:Dubya says Rummy's doing one heckuva job.
