Daschle

One of the lefty blogs in SD, Dakota Today, takes former Senator Daschle to task:

Well, I heard former Senator Tom Daschle talking on NPR TOTN as indicated in previous post.

Daschle indicated he just could not believe Bush would lie about serious matters like war.

Daschle is just too damn proud to admit he was snookered by the Texas Twit. That pride prevented him from making any attacks on Bush in his SD campaign and probably made it impossible for Daschle to win in South Dakota. Or, made his losing campaign a complete waste since it did nothing to educate the nation on how Bush lied and deceived.

I can't believe Daschle is so naive that he does not believe Bush would lie. I find it hard to believe that Bush would tell the truth about anything unless some tiny bit of the truth had some potential partisan advantage.

I guess when you are working for a lobbying outfit it doesn't make any sense to change positions that did not work in the past.
