Conrad Crane was in the first row tonight, and was very enthusiastic about Bush and his speech. Almost would not let go of his hands when he was shaking them, and clapping as loud and long as anyone.
I have known Crane for many, many years. I find his reports very accurate. But he does believe the administration is by and large doing the right things with the exception of a couple of early mistakes. Of course, the press will take his commnets on those issues and twist it to make it sound like he is anti-Bush. He clearly is not!
Thanks for the feedback.
I found it interesting that the AP put that piece on the wire just a few hours before the President is speaking .
