A fake it may be, but he's so tone deaf politicaly that I could see where something similar could occur. Much as I sometimes delve into partisanship, I wish we could leave it to the side for awhile. A ceasefire requires mutual agreement though, and I can't see Daschle missing a chance to ram both feet in his mouth at nearly the speed of sound. His Pavlovian teacher was very good. Conditioned response seems to be a nearly universal trait among Bush's critics.
