Yes, White House. Take Tom DeLay's advice. That's a good idea...

Yahoo! News has an analysis of how Bush's onetime allies are-oh, what is the phrase-cutting and running. You can read it if you like but it probably won't tell you anything you don't already know.

"This is just a taste of what it's going to be like for the next two years," said former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, R-Texas. He told NBC's "Today" show the White House "ought to be fighting back" harder.

Yes, White House. Please. Listen to Tom DeLay, a man whose name is synonymous with corruption. That's exactly what you need. And god bless you, "Today" show and NBC for continuing to treat him as though he should be taken seriously in any way.

I miss you, Molly Ivins. This would've been like the second coming for you.
