Bush stayed up late for caucus returns
Posted: 12:54 PM ET



WASHINGTON (CNN) – It takes something extraordinary to keep President Bush awake late into the evening, and the exciting Iowa caucuses — which resulted in upstart victories for Republican Mike Huckabee and Democrat Barack Obama — were up to the challenge.

"The President watched the returns last night, he stayed up past his usual bedtime I think to wait for the results to be announced," White House spokesman Tony Fratto told reporters with a smile on Friday morning. "He watched the network coverage of the results coming in. It's something obviously that he's keeping an eye on."

Bush clearly does not want to show favor to any one Republican candidate at this preliminary stage, so Fratto said the President did not place a congratulatory phone call to Huckabee. "I think it's a little bit early to be doing phone calls," he noted.

But in private, the President is expressing admiration about the spirited competition thus far. "The President said that these races are great tests," Fratto said. "You win some and you lose some. And the question is: how do you do in the long run? He thinks it's a good test for anyone who will eventually end up in this job."

Passing out is not the same as "going to bed" dude.

He naps in the middle of the day, doesn't he?

and think ... Rainman

Uh oh, fifteen minutes to Judge Wapner

The noble condescender wouldn't call Huckabee. That's the bottom line, the rest is evasion. They will destroy Huckabee because he is in the way. Bush has to consider this good drama to instill some kind of life in the thugs he has lined up, other wise he would lose more sleep at night.

Keep scarfing that pigeon dip, bright eyes.

to respond to the news of Bhutto's assassination? I'm so impressed by the sacrifice!

hearing the caucus results?

Now that the visitor logs have been ruled public documents, it is much more difficult to get Jeffie and his other "close friends" into the White House.

Oh, I hope that the hundreds of thousands of deaths he's caused are extraordinary enough--but I doubt it.
