I had a similar thought last night when I was watching live. If we are going to engage in this type of thing, this is exactly the way to do it.
The other thought I had, which surely will be unpopular here, is that none of this happens without Bush. The execution was terrible and his timing was way off, but I think this is the type of thing he envisioned happening.
