What did Bush have against Blackwell?
Pres Bush has me perplexed, I will not be afraid to admit. On one hand he was a great president, the right man for the right time. A man of integrity and principles. But then, it was like the “jason” would emerge and he would do the most boneheaded things.
I suspect he (Pres Bush) listened to the RINO party line on support, Blackwell was never one of the “in crowd” with the sorry republican party we have here in Ohio. The party didn’t care for his conservatism.
The same case was with Spectator in PA. Support the long time party guy even though he has alwasy been a stinking democrat ... and now he is.
Blackwell was a national co-chair of Steve Forbes 2000 Presidential campaign.
Also Blackwell wouldn't cheat to get Ralph Nader on the ballot despite bogus signatures in 2004.
