Bush should have cancelled that fund raiser immediately, and gone to a microphone every 30 minutes with Ridge to give an "update". Its all fluff, but that would have silenced the critics, and forced the networks to cover it instead of a Hillary phon-a-thon on every channel.

I heard one woman interviewed that said she wanted Bush to make a speech to reassure everyone that things would be all right.

Nice idea except the very people that needed reassuring wouldn't be able to hear him because they had no power!

I guess I disagree. President Bush has never been into "fluff" and he never will be. He did the right thing - it's the others that did the wrong thing. And why should he have cancelled the fund raiser? There was nothing more he could do and those people were all gathered to see him. He flew to CA to see them and there was no reason for him to cancel. Too bad the big terrorist catch was blown off all the cable shows. It was an important catch.
