What's left behind?

Over at Digby's place, Tristero rightly worries about the residue left behind when the Bush Administration is turned out in January.

Dan Froomkin, wearing his other hat at Nieman Watchdog, has given that some thought. He's been writing a series he calls Entrenchment examining the ways the Bush Administration may try to keep its policies in place long after the next President is inaugurated.

Part One: Do we really expect the Bushies to go quietly?
Part Two: Midnight rulemaking, last-minute hires and executive fiats
Part Three: The time for a national conversation on pardons is before, not after, they're granted
Part Four: What's the vice president up to these days?
Part Five: How far will Bush loyalists go to help McCain win?

It's very educational.
