If this speech means anything at all, then Bush's second term is going to be a blowout!
What could stop it? Well, Bill Frist wants to be President. If he has to ruin Bush's second term to get his first, he will. Senators are like that. The challenge for the President will be to use the power of the office in such a way that the Senate can't get in his way.
So, while I don't expect that we'll see a lot of Begala's "Stroke of the pen, law of the land" activity, I think this administration will depend as little as possible on the legialative branch.
