Bush trades jabs with Rev. Al over elections

<snip>

"Don't feel too bad," Sharpton told Bush about the GOP nosedive in the congressional elections. "I lost some elections and kept going," said Sharpton, who has yet to win an election while losing bids for mayor, senator and President.

"I guess that's good advice coming from you," a smiling Bush replied in a dig at Sharpton's vast experience - at losing.

Not to be topped, Sharpton shot back: "The only thing is, that isn't the last election we're going to win."

Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.), a potential presidential contender in 2008, was among the keynoters, and Bush also playfully noted the standing ovation given to former President Bill Clinton, compared with the respectful applause that greeted his own entrance.

Turning to Clinton, who was seated behind him on the stage, Bush said, "It sounds like to me they haven't forgotten you yet."
