Bush to hold press conference Wednesday

President Bush will hold a news conference on Wednesday to discuss the outcome of the U.S. congressional elections, White House spokesman Tony Snow announced on Tuesday night.

The news conference was set for 1 p.m. ET.

Snow said the outcome of the elections, in which Democrats were projected to win control of the House of Representatives, was “not what we would’ve hoped,” (understatement, wouldn't you say?) and that it will be up to the Democrats to help find solutions to problems instead of complaining about them. (Oh really? You have had absolute power for six years now and suddenly it's up to the Democrats to find solutions?)
