WARREN, Mich. (AP) - President Bush headlined a fund-raiser in Warren tonight that raised $700,000 for Republican U-S Senate candidate Mike Bouchard.
He told the crowd that the Democrats are (quote) "dancing in the end zone" when they're only on the 15 yard line.
Before arriving at the fund-raiser, Bush and Bouchard stopped by the Morley Candy Makers factory.
Before coming to Michigan, Bush was in Des Moines, Iowa, at lunchtime. He helped raise $400,000 for the state Republican Party and congressional candidate Jeff Lamberti. The president mistakenly referred to Lamberti as "Dave" throughout his speech.
In his speeches, Bush hammered the same themes he has been using against the Democrats all fall that they want to raise taxes and are soft on terrorism. Democrats say the rhetoric is just an attempt to distract voters from Bush's failures in Iraq.
