...but, so what? Shrub is shooting his wad too early. If they kill Saddam (they won't catch him alive) Shrub will get a temporary bump in the polls. But just like when Uday and Qusay were killed the bump will be temporary. Unfortunatly the unrest in Iraq will continue, and people will still die. But the mis-administration will no longer be able to say "Saddam is directing some of it" or "The resistance wants Saddam back in power", or other similar figleafs.

The bump will be temporary. The poll numbers will soon continue their downward slide, and Shrub won't have the "we got Saddam" story to use when he needs a bump in the future.
