The Bush gang is always horrible playing defense. The Kerry gang
appears to recognize this:-
WASHINGTON - A Nebraska business executive withdrew from consideration to be President Bush (news - web sites)'s point man on manufacturing Thursday after presumptive Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry (news - web sites) raised questions about his stance on shifting U.S. jobs to foreign countries.
The Bush administration said Anthony Raimondo's withdrawal was related to Nebraska political issues and not the flap raised by the Kerry campaign.
But the nomination had appeared in doubt after Kerry's campaign had raised questions of why the Bush administration was picking someone to guide government efforts to halt the hemorrhage of American manufacturing jobs who had laid off 75 of his own workers in 2002 after announcing he was constructing a $3 million plant in China.
