Tie them to Bush

Frank Rich's addition to our weekly reader: McCain Can Run, but Bush Won’t Hide (free New York Times account required)

(If they’re going to go the pharmaceutical route, “Viva Viagra” might be more to the point.) Yet for all the Republican self-flagellation, it’s still not clear that the party even understands the particular dimensions of its latest defeat and its full implications for both Congressional races and John McCain in November.
