Lots of members have been appalled at the kind of Gilded Age mentality of the party. Others felt like they had to take one for the team.

This is a powerful partnership.

This is a major fork in the road for him.

I'm sure that he's growing a little tired of members taking what he believes are gratuitous personal shots at him,

The pivotal moment in the 1992 campaign was when [the first President] Bush said, 'The economy is not as bad as you think it is'. If this president reaches a point where he's suggesting the same thing -- and that's not far from where they are now -- then they have a problem.

The fault line here is really among the fiscally conservative Republicans, who are uneasy about deficits.

It was very significant two years ago when Greenspan endorsed the first Bush tax cut plan. So his basically lukewarm attitude now, saying that some of these ideas are good things in principle, but not at the expense of large deficits, has to weigh heavily on those moderate Republicans.

But, after the terrible lapses that occurred here, they are going to be on the defensive, and the ability to push other things onto the agenda will be limited.

When you have a dramatic expansion of the ability of individual members to direct federal funds or to designate contracts, you are creating the most fertile environment for corruption imaginable.

In some ways there's a real desire to get out of it because you don't want to be saddled with a loss, but if you leave now it's like opting out of the battlefield in the middle of the war and there may be some backlash.

To a large degree the durability of this compromise is going to depend on the actions of President Bush. He can keep it or blow it up. It depends on what kind of judges he nominates.

It's the most expansive vision of the executive power of a president in our lifetime. To suggest that (Congress has) given him a blanket authority to do what he has done is a vast stretch.

It's a self-perpetuating system involving interests, members of Congress, people in the executive branch and patronage positions and so on.

This is not just a one-way street.

Lobbying is in the DNA of the political process ... and you're never going to get around human nature. So you can't legislate perfection here, but it's very clear that we've gotten lax, and there's an awful lot of money and politics in Washington.
