"That won't be a problem for us" (scandals in 2nd term)
What's that I smell? Burning hubris? :rofl:



WASHINGTON - Before his 2004 reelection, President George Bush commissioned his political guru Karl Rove to identify potential pitfalls for Bush's second term.

Rove's analysis noted one common thread: Recent presidents with troubled second acts were all dogged by scandal.

"That won't be a problem for us," a senior Bush aide confidently told the New York Daily News then.

I'm sure this was posted here already, but it's one of those quotes that needs to be thrown back at them again and again.
