President Bush’s overdue speech last week is paying dividends, if the Sunday talk shows were any indication.

Read this from Glenn Reynolds, who watched John McCain on Face the Nation, and this from John Hinderaker at Power Line, who watched Jay Rockefeller fall flat on his face on Fox News Sunday.

Ed Morrissey weighs in:

How empty are the Democrats of ideas and long-term plans for national security? Three years later, they’re still lying about their own statements on national TV to smear George Bush — even though he can’t run for election again! Rockefeller shows how lame this meme has become. It should embarrass every Democrat in the country and start a demand for new party leadership. Unfortunately, it won’t, but it may finally convince the rational moderates that the Democrats have led the party over a cliff.

I repeat: It’s about damned time.

Tom Maguire has more. Go read him.

Update: Jonathan Gurwitz has an excellent column at Jewish World Review: Read between the lines.
