Bush '04 team taps Racicot; Gillespie set to be RNC chief

 Republican National Committee Chairman Marc Racicot yesterday announced he will become chairman of the Bush-Cheney re-election campaign and be replaced as national party chairman by Ed Gillespie. . . .

 Mr. Gillespie yesterday told The Washington Times he aims to strengthen the grass-roots organizing that was emphasized by the Bush campaign's political team in 2000 and that Republicans used effectively in achieving their electoral sweep in 2002.

    "The Republican Party functions best when it functions as a bottom-up party, and President Bush energizes Republicans in a way we haven't seen in a long time," Mr. Gillespie said. "The party as an institution has done a great job of translating that energy into votes, but we can always do better." Click Here for FULL ARTICLE

Good point! I just saw on AOL Update News where Pres Bush launched his fundraising campaign and Ari was asked what he intended to do with the money. Here is the AP article:

Bush Launches Fund-Raising Blitz

By TOM RAUM
The Associated Press

WASHINGTON (AP) - President Bush was launching a fund-raising blitz Tuesday for his 2004 re-election campaign, beginning the job of raising tens of millions of dollars that the White House said would be spent in part to counter attacks from the Democratic contenders.

``Given the fact that there are nine Democrats who every day criticize the president, it's important for the president to have the ability to respond and to set the record straight,'' said White House spokesman Ari Fleischer.

He had been asked what Bush, expected to be unopposed for the GOP nomination, planned to do with all the money.

Bush was attending his first fund-raiser Tuesday evening in Washington, a $2,000-per-person reception at the Washington Hilton.

The president will do similar events on Friday in Greensboro, Ga.; June 23 in New York; June 27 in suburban San Francisco and Los Angeles; and June 30 in Miami and Tampa, Fla.

The White House on Tuesday announced three more fund-raisers, bringing the total to 10: Dallas on July 18, Houston on July 19, and the Detroit area on July 24.

During the next several months, Bush was expected to raise perhaps as much as twice the record $100 million he collected for the 2000 primaries.

The Bush campaign has declined to accept federal matching funds for the primary campaign season, exempting him from the spending restrictions that come with those funds and allowing him to spend much of what he raises. That gives him a huge financial advantage over the field of Democratic candidates.

``Of course, there are advantages and disadvantages in the political season, the way the Democrats are running, with nine Democrats,'' Fleischer said.

``That many voices all speaking out so negatively does mean the president will need to respond to set the record straight and to make sure the American people know what he's done and why he's done it.''

At the same time, Fleischer said it was premature to talk about running television and radio ads advocating Bush's re-election.

``It's much too early for the White House to get into that,'' Fleischer said.

``Of course, he will do what he needs to do to prepare, and that's why he's fund raising,'' Fleischer added.

503 days of clutching a barf bag.

I wonder if they come in "heavy-duty" and "extra-heavy-duty"?

[Cordova Belle]

Good grief, PhiKap---post a diclaimer next time, next to that link to the Bushenstein cartoon. Had I realized it would take me to a Democrat web site, I NEVER would have clicked!

(I don't visit porn sites, gambling casinos, bars, flop-houses, or brothels, either---the moral equivalent.)

[Consort]

The only question is which of those nine Democrats are going to be the VP nominee.

[W04Man]

BUMP!

Bump.

Bush is betraying conservative principles and beliefs for votes.

By subsuming the agenda and calling it his own, along with House and Senate pubs, he is remaking himself into a liberal.

I will hold my nose and vote for him this time. But giving to his campaign is out of the question.

I am sickened by this medicare/drug agenda. The massive tax refund to those who don't pay income tax. Reducing payroll taxes for those who make under 20k makes sense. Not a free refund.

AWB support.
Massive public school funding.


If there is some sort of strategery at play, like getting a 2nd term and demolishing big govt, it makes no sense to build it up beforehand.

I'm a very dissapointed and depressed conservative this evening.

IMO the republicans in control have failed and have squandered any political capital they had with me.

And it enrages me that there is nowhere else to go, except some obscure third party who thinks illegals are OK, and illicit drugs should be legal.

[RealEstateEntrepreneur]

I understand your concern over Bush's domestic agenda.

I favor a *vastly* reduced government. But I still think that's Bush's plan.

Notice how the major limited gov't types, like Norquist and the Club for Growth, are eagerly working with Bush, instead of bashing him for growing gov't. I think they know the behind-the-scenes plan.

I think the enlargements of gov't Bush has agreed to have been to kill the opportunity for Democrats to make an argument on these issues. And the level of increase he's agreed to has been significantly smaller than they'd stick us with.

BUT, and here's where things get interesting: Factor in 3 major tax cuts--and more to come. Factor in privatizing a portion of social security accounts--it's coming. Factor in Lifetime Savings Accounts--they're coming. Factor in Medical Savings Accounts--they're coming. The private social security accounts by themselves will undo the entire program in a couple decades. All you need is a fraction privatized--and the results of those accounts will speak for themselves. So, more privatized accounts. Less taxation. It's a plan to kill big gov't in the long run. And it's very bold.

Don't be so sad. I think great things are in the works.
