MALVEAUX: Well, so far the White House is not committing anyone to go before it and testify. They're going to wait and see how all of this plays out. Of course, it looks like there are going to be hearings early next year, but what the White House is banking on now is that they're moving forward very aggressively, making their case that the president, the administration did not break the law. But what they're also looking at as well is what are members of Congress going to be dealing with when they go back home for the holidays? Are Americans going to be complaining about this?
They do not believe that this is a water cooler conversation. They believe that most Americans will look at this and say, OK, there's some exceptions here, that there's some maneuvers within the law that the president used to protect the American people, that this does not necessarily apply to us or our family, and therefore this will not be an issue that sticks.
That is their hope, but they're going to wait and see until Republican members of Congress in particular come back and report to the president and say
what Americans are saying. http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2005/12/23/124535/96SO WHAT ARE WE SAYING:
