Weren't there reports that an attempt was planned to assassinate Bush that day at the hotel he was staying at in Florida? I wonder if there were plans to assassinate him in Washington.

I don't recall the Florida hotel story. I remember something about a cryptic message to the effect of "Air Force One is next," after the President departed Florida. Something about AF1 codes being compromised too.

The story lingered a bit, was later debunked, then semi-undebunked, IIRC. I'm not certain of the final status.

Retold in Woodward's Bush at War -

The call said "Angel is Next". Angel being the codeword for AF1.
