>>>There is no way that Congress, up for election this year, will shun their single best campaigner (Bush)

Having Bush "help" you on a campaign may be the last thing you'd want.

Right now all liberals hate Bush with great passion. And an increasing amount of middle-of-the-roaders and conservatives have become disillusioned with Bush over his love of illegals and... now this. This leads to dispondency.

No, I think Bush might not be a help to many campaigns at the rate he's throwing away his political capital.

The Harriet Myers affair was bad, but this is a spoiler for the next elections. Bush is certainly out of touch with the people that elected him. It will show in the next election. Hopefully this will be our last Yale president. I don't think our country can take too many more.

There's no one besides Bush to help those up for re-election. Who else is going to do it? Will McCain take time out of his re-election bid to campaign for others? Will anyone care if he does? Of course not. Bush is what the GOP has, and what the GOP will use. He's already won.

Miers led to Alito. I really don't think that should be classified in the "bad" category, especially since it robbed the Democrats of much of their criticism.

Based on the ports issue, it's not Bush that's out of touch.
