 I don't know if Republicans have ever had a week like this, quite frankly. And if they haven't, it's been a long, long, long time. The Bush years are pretty good. Bush had some good weeks. Maybe some early on. Once the war started, there was a lot of bad weeks for the Bush administration. I remember, and people will not forget, and of course the tragedy of 9-11 was the basis of this. George W. Bush had an 83% approval rating in Maryland.
