He wouldn't be running to win. Just to insure a Dem defeat. And of course the BFEE would no doubt always remember such a "favor".

You know it actually makes the MOST sense compared to just about any other theory people have on shady Bush election possibilities.

ALL other such speculation I have seen would involve HIGHLY illegal activity. (i.e. mass computer voting fraud) Why would Bush risk practically everything on such illegal acts when he can achieve the same ends, but through legal means? Not only that - in those particular instances large numbers of people would have to be in on the scheme. So why would he NOT want to get an independent to run and take as many Democratic votes away as possible? It's legal - and it doesn't require large nubmers of people to know about it.

So here comes this guy who has a shady past regarding what side he is actually on practically out of nowhere. All of a sudden he is a front runner over 9 other candidates. Makes ya think.
