Saddam Hussein has been probed and prodded for an international audience, North Korea has evolved its hardline nuclear brinkmanship by offering concessions (however marginal), and Colonel Muammar Gaddafi has ensured himself a continued stroll down easy street by authorizing his country to become little more than an enthusiastic White House briefing.  Couple this with a thawing in India-Pakistan relations, a possible ceasefire agreement in the brutal Sudanese civil war, and a new constitution for Afghanistan and soon Iraq, and it seems as though Bush's brand of arrogant unilateralism has produced tangible results for the upcoming election campaign.

With no candidates that will even come close to making a dent in the Bush political machine, and a potential future candidate in Senator Hillary Clinton who has just publicly uttered racist slurs about Mahatma Gandhi, the Democratic party is in a deep crisis, and unfortunately will limp, not run, across the electoral finish line in November.
