First lady due here to aid Reynolds

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Laura Bush, the one Republican everyone seems to like, is on her way to help bail out Rep. Thomas M. Reynolds.

By ROBERT J. McCARTHY
News Political Reporter
10/3/2006

She has been called the Republican Party's secret weapon - the woman to whom embattled Republicans turn when in trouble.

And if anyone has ever needed first lady Laura Bush to come to the rescue, it's Rep. Thomas M. Reynolds.

On one level, she will arrive Wednesday for a long scheduled fundraiser in the Buffalo Niagara Marriott in Amherst for the Clarence Republican, who faces a stiff local challenge. But on a higher level, she also brings first aid to a top party figure wounded by the controversy surrounding former Rep. Mark A. Foley of Florida.

Even before Foley's resignation Friday over improper communications with House pages, Reynolds had sought White House help for his tough re-election campaign against Akron industrialist Jack Davis.

He didn't seek President Bush, whose popularity ratings are near all-time lows, or Vice President Cheney, whose numbers also are cellar dwellers.

3. LOL
This is as funny as the time she had poll no.s higher than Bush, Cheney and Rummy's combined (something is wrong grammatically with that sentence)...

I personally find her highly annoying but it is hilarious that the one Repug everyone likes is one who has nothing to do with policy...:rofl:
Makes sense though...

14. Lots of luck - Bill Clinton was at the Bills game Sunday
I guess Hillary was, too, but they didn't show her. They showed Bill several times, and it was in the paper, as well, saying what a great time he had, and how he was calling plays before they played them - Bill is LOVED (and the Bills owner and coaches said he knows his football.). THAT'S how you get to the people in Buffalo! They live for football.

Somehow I can't see Pickles among the "common people". She'll probably be preaching to the constantly-growing-smaller choir.
