from the Washington Post:
“You adapt to the circumstances and the circumstances are different,” said Mark McKinnon, Bush’s political consultant and friend. But he added he detected no loss of confidence within the Bush team. “I get zero sense of that. This is an administration and a president that are like the Marines — they’re used to taking the beach, they’re used to getting shelled. But they dig in and they do their jobs.”
McKinnon said if anything Bush thrives under the pressure. “I’ve never seen the president burdened by the presidency,” he said. “He’s built to deal with really big events. It’s in his DNA.”
