Something I noticed today, there were no pictures of Bush or Cheney voting.

Usually, the incumbent is seen casting his ballot. Usually, the incumbent also speaks after voting, offering a strong endorsement of his party’s candidate.

This year is not usual in this regard as the incumbent is so wildly unpopular.

It’s no wonder we haven’t seen much of him recently, and though he may not be currently in anyone’s field of vision, he’s certainly on their minds.

If anyone is responsible for the abysmal performance of the Republican party this year, its George W. (for What were they thinking when they elected him twice?) Bush.

When people look back at the historic election of 2008, Bush will take a large slice of the blame. And that brainless bimbo, Sarah Palin, who kept the independent voters away from the Republicans in droves, will also shoulder a healthy portion of blame.
