Why bother when you can just throw some more people off the voting rolls?
I must say though, that I like the developing pattern of quoting the presidential opponent when you do a story about one of the candidates. As long as the quote is relevant.
Bush Heads to Florida to Rally Voters
By PETE YOST, Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON - President Bush (news - web sites) is trying to whip up support in Florida, the state that gave him the White House in 2000, while Republicans send out hundreds of volunteers in a massive voter registration drive.
Bush makes his 20th visit to Florida on Saturday as president to attend in Orlando what the campaign calls the first grass-roots mobilization rally in his quest for re-election. He was last in Florida a month ago, throttling up his re-election bid by opening the Daytona 500 auto race, NASCAR (news - web sites)'s most prestigious event.
On the eve of Bush's appearance, Democratic rival John Kerry (news - web sites)'s campaign said the president has left a trail of broken promises.
"President Bush's economic policies have failed Florida," said Rep. Kendrick Meek, Kerry's state campaign chairman. Bush's "corporate buddies have shipped 70,000 Floridian manufacturing jobs overseas and now it's time for Mr. Bush to get the pink slip."
