Senator John McCain goes on the offensive against ex-Defense Secretary Rumsfeld. "We are paying a very heavy price for the mismanagement, that's the kindest word I can give you, of Donald Rumsfeld, of this war," said McCain. "I think Donald Rumsfeld will go down in history as one of the worst secretaries of defense in history." Needless to say, his nomination for Republican presidential candidacy follows shortly behind. Is Bush quietly letting McCain do his bidding over the reputations of his colleagues? With Rummy floored, how long will Big Dick remain clear of the firing line?
