While the state GOP convention going on right now in Houston will surely present plenty of opportunities for snark, I think this is the most noteworthy thing I've seen so far.
Texas GOP Chairwoman Tina Benkiser said Bush still is popular in Texas, but few convention speakers mentioned him by name.
So I suppose I should cut Benkiser a little slack here, since nobody seems to be all that interested in polling Texans about President Bush any more. Maybe we've all just moved on and nobody cares to ponder the question any more, I don't know. But if Benkiser and crew want to campaign this fall as if they actually believe Bush is still popular here, I say they should go for it. Mention his name all you like, it's fine by us.
