Loading ...Bush, GOP hoping terror card can save them from election drubbing
September 5th, 2006
President Bush and the Republicans expect a stinging defeat in November, but they’re betting the terror card saves them from an electoral debacle.
“The security issue trumps everything,” a senior Bush official said last week. “That’s why even though they’re really mad at us, in the end they’re going to give us another two years.”
Nevertheless, many other senior Bush loyalists privately believe anti-Iraq and anti-Bush sentiment will cost the Republicans the House nine weeks from today, a doomsday scenario that would cripple Bush for his final two years in office.
