From CNN today --

Kenneth Adelman, who served on the Defense Policy Board that informally advised President Bush, told a magazine interviewer he was mistaken in his high opinion of Bush's national security advisors and executives. "They turned out to be among the most incompetent teams in the postwar era," he said. "Not only did each of them, individually, have enormous flaws, but together they were deadly, dysfunctional."

Kathleen,

They're just hoping that they can get off this bandwagon in time to get a new gig with the next administration.

A month or two ago, the Washington Monthly ran a series of essays by prominent conservatives (and not the old guard, either) on "Why It's Time for Us to Go (http://www.washingtonmonthly.com/features/2006/0610.forum.html)".

The positive spin some Republicans are trying to put on this: "We need to lose now so that we can win in 2008."
