President's Fundraising Travels Winding Down
3/29/2004 5:09 PM
President Bush's fund-raising odyssey, which carried him thousands of miles on a quest for $170 million, is coming to an end. But the dollars will continue to flow into his war chest. Having already crossed that goal, Bush's money drive comes full-circle with a fund-raiser Wednesday night in Washington - the same place the push for cash started on June 17, 2003. It will be one of the last of its kind. The final fund-raiser is likely to be next month, campaign officials say.

GOP Hopes Schwarzenegger Boosts Bush
3/4/2004 5:03 PM
His own status as leader of the free world notwithstanding, President Bush is counting on the unprecedented star power of another Republican for a political boost: California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger. Bush flew to California Wednesday for a two-day campaign swing and appeared with Schwarzenegger at a Republican Party fund-raiser in Los Angeles. The event took in $3.5 million and give Bush an opportunity to stand shoulder to shoulder with the state's most popular politician. "Gov. Schwarzenegger is a very important part of our mission to change the face and reach of the party," said Gerry Parsky, Bush's California campaign chairman. "The support he gets from the people and his success at establishing a bipartisan approach to governing, we believe, can be translated into a real plus for us."

Dick Morris: How Bush can Destroy Kerry Fast
3/4/2004 5:00 PM
The Democratic Party chose a nominee Tuesday who probably cannot win the White House in November. In opting for Sen. John Kerry of Massachusetts and turning down Sen. John Edwards of North Carolina, Democrats have broken from the pragmatism and moderation that dominated their party's profile under Bill Clinton and Al Gore in the 1990s. Their party has now moved back to the liberal extremism of Walter Mondale and Michael Dukakis that characterized the 1980s - with the same predictable result. It is now up to President Bush to take advantage of this by implementing a three-part strategy in the coming campaign.

Bush Re-Election Ads Focus on Past 3 Years
3/3/2004 12:07 PM
President Bush talks about his hope for the future in his re-election campaign's first television ads but mainly focuses on the national security and economic challenges America has faced during his three years in office. The ads include images of wreckage from the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks and talk of a declining stock market as they seek to portray Bush as a leader on both foreign and domestic issues. "I know exactly where I want to lead this country," the Republican incumbent says in one ad. "I'm optimistic about America because I believe in the people of America."

GOP Plans Votes to Put Democrats on the Spot
3/2/2004 3:05 PM
Republicans plan to use Congress to pull Sen. John F. Kerry and vulnerable Democrats into the cultural wars over gay rights, abortion and guns, envisioning a series of debates and votes that will highlight the candidates' positions on divisive issues, according to congressional aides and GOP officials. The strategy will be on full display today, as Kerry (Mass.) and Sen. John Edwards (N.C.), the leading Democratic presidential candidates, plan to interrupt their Super Tuesday campaigning to fly to Washington for half a dozen votes on gun legislation, including liability protections for gun manufacturers. Both men oppose the liability bill, placing them in their party's majority even though some prominent Democrats -- including Senate Minority Leader Thomas A. Daschle (D-S.D.) -- support the bill.

Former Representative Coburn Enters Oklahoma GOP Primary
3/2/2004 3:04 PM
Tom Coburn's entry yesterday into the GOP Senate primary in Oklahoma complicates party officials' efforts to rally around early favorite Kirk Humphreys, but Republicans insist that they welcome the former congressman to the race. "There is one positive side," Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.), a Humphreys supporter, said. "You'll have two articulate people that will be talking about the record, the terrible record, of Brad Carson." Carson, a second-term Democratic congressman from the eastern part of the state, also is running for the Senate seat, which is being vacated by retiring Sen. Don Nickles (R-Okla.).
