A crack in the lines.

Third rail redux...As the White House pushes for a renewed GOP advance on Dubya's privatization scheme, the big Congressional names -- Frist and DeLay -- have started hedging their bets. Hmmm...if the Republican leaders are already acting this shaky, the ground troops must be contemplating a full-on rout. In fact, to pursue the military metaphor, Harry Reid and the Dems should take this moment of weakness as the perfect opportunity to unleash some heavy-duty Harry and Louise-type firepower. Remember '93? It's payback time.
