- Wrapping up a campaign shadowed by war and terrorism, President Bush (\ and Democratic Sen. John Kerry unabashedly sought political advantage Saturday from Osama bin Laden's re-emergence.
"It's very helpful to the president," contended Bush ally Sen. John McCain (news, bio, voting record), R-Ariz., although the president didn't mention the menacing new message from bin Laden at his first campaign stops on a four-state, 14-hour swing.
Weird people, Republicans.
