Stuck With the SOB?

So let me get this straight. As long as he's incompetent he stays. If things get better, he goes?

Huh?

Froomkin:

Chris Matthews had DeFrank and Washington Post reporter Dana Milbank on his MSNBC show last night:

"MATTHEWS: Is Rumsfeld in trouble?

"MILBANK: Well, he should be by any normal standard, but I think as Tom [DeFrank] correctly points out, that this president is not one to push somebody out when he is in a difficult spot, that's why they are just waiting for something to make a little bit of a turn here, whereby he could be eased out."
