Bush Can't Let Go Of Social Security

From the Washington Post:

The Bush administration has begun sounding out lawmakers and other key figures about mounting a new bipartisan effort to rein in the costs of Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security after the midterm elections, according to officials in the administration and on Capitol Hill.

The Post reports that Bush "appears fixated on the issue."

However, Grover Norquist, a Republican strategist has a different view. He:

... said he can envision no circumstance in which Bush could secure any overhaul of the Social Security program, including creating personal accounts. "The Democrats cannot be bribed, cajoled or threatened into voting for Social Security reform -- it can't happen," he said.
