Reverse Midas Touch

According to Kos, a Alice Kerr, a republican congressional candidate for a special election in Kentucky has run into some problems. Kerr has been a loyal foot soldier for the administration, but now she is polling poorly. Due to her dropping numbers, Kerr has distanced herself from Bush and the President has cancelled an appearance in her district. To support Alice Kerr, Cheney is holding a fundraiser for her hundreds of miles outside of her district, in Illiniois. Even worse, this is for a historically republican seat in a majority republican district. A little help from the President of The United States, would normally be viewed as tremendous campaigning asset, but Bush has managed to make into a liability. The news just gets better and better these days.
