"Bush Who?"
George W. Bush will be up in Rochester Tuesday, part of that prescription drug tour that hasn't exactly succeeded in changing the subject from Iraq, Dubai, or anything else.
But New York State's Republican candates, of course, are flocking to be seen with their President, right? Not so much.
"Bush who?" joked one Republican campaign aide.
A number of other campaigns also wouldn't go on the record with their Tuesday plans or didn't get back to me, but here are those that did:
"Jeanine will be spending time with her kids during their spring break," says Pirro spokeswoman Anne Marie Corbalis.
"We haven't been asked and we will not be in Rochester on Tuesday," says Weld spokeswoman Andrea Tantaros.
"KT has meetings in a different part of the state on Tuesday, but would be very pleased to campaign with the President down the road," says McFarland spokesman Bill O'Reilly.
Will Tim "Friend of Jack" Reynolds be there?
Got the answer from the AP:
"Congressman Reynolds is excited that President Bush is coming up to New York. Obviously, any time President Bush comes up it is a good opportunity for New Yorkers, particularly to learn about the Medicare prescription drug benefit and how seniors can save money on their prescription drugs," said Reynolds' spokesman L.D. Platt.
Canandaigua's congressman, Rep. John "Randy" Kuhl, had received no confirmation that the president was coming, said the congressman's spokesman.
Guess they forgot how he was coming at Kuhl's invitation.
Guess Rove is concerned about Davis and Massa.
Ports losses, Medicare Part D mess , Iraq war, Iran Nukes, Hamas elections,lobbyist abramoff interviews. is it a surprise that he's getting out of DC??
In the unlikely event that this bunch of hacks manages to get itself elected, they'll be scurrying to kiss the ring soon enough. Public bootlickery may presently be inadvisable for Spencer and Co, since the Texan has a 29% unfavorable/favorable gap, but I'm sure they're all tempted. And when it comes down to it, they'll all support his agenda, so this is a public distance merely of convenience.
We call it beatin' round the Bush.
