Well Bush didn't want to help Earley.

I am going to admit that I didnt quite understand why prominent republicans werent more involved in promoting Earley.

A little here...a little there and we would've pulled this out.

I wouldnt mind knowing the mental process behind W. not at least doing a thirty second spot for him.

???

Oh well.

Honestly......the threat was McEachin(sp?) that cat is a bonafide Clintonista. He really would've screwed the pooch. The anti-gun lobby would've had all kinds of ammo after about one year of this idiot not enforcing the law.

Small to medium victory.

I love how everyone assumes Bush will expose himself in public to the nut jobs that are out there in the country, who would love to take a shot at him.

In addition, what makes you think bush is the guy that would matter. Either the state likes the candidate or they don't. You would also have to have proof through polling that public appearances by Bush would make a difference. Do you know that? I am sure the Earley campaign did/does. What have they said about Bush's absence on the stump? Are they complaining? Could it be that Earley ran a bad campaign...had ideas that didn't sell?

Not that the liberals will give him any credit for 'bipartisanship' in a crisis.
