He is not only covering dems, but also the media. If he has ANY hopes of a future Pres.wishes that ain't gonna happen. Bush went out of his way to respect McCain. When he keeps quiet saying nothing about dems attack on Bush while passionately defending Kerry's record - that 's the end of respect for him in 2nd Bush term.
