The Election HELPS Shrub?

Maybe.  That's what Newsweeks's Jonathan Alter says.  The only missing piece I can see is 43's seemingly endless stubbornness.  Is he willing to back down from his bully pulpit to accept dissenting views?  Will he shun Rove and Cheney and listen to more moderate GOPers - or even listen to some from the other side of the aisle? 
 
If I'm Rove or Mehlman, I do everything I can to give this presidency as soft a landing as possible.  Right now, that's they're best hope to avoid another big surge to the left in 2008.
