Cheney’s shot across the bow : TheWorldNewser

TheWorldNewser: "From their vacation homes in Texas and Wyoming, President Bush and Vice President Cheney offered their take -- or better yet, spin -- on Joe Lieberman's defeat. (At left, Lieberman talks to reporters today.)

They suggest it says less about the President's popularity or the war in Iraq than it does about who now controls the Democratic party.

'I know a lot of people have tried to make this a referendum on the president and I would flip it,' White House Press Secretary Tony Snow said today. 'I think instead it's a defining moment for the Democratic Party, whose national leaders now have made it clear that if you disagree with the extreme left in their party they're going to come after you.'"
