Republicans hoping to prevent another close call for GOP Rep. Marilyn Musgrave are bringing in President Bush to Colorado Tuesday to raise funds and shore up her re-election bid.

“Both sides are looking at this race as an early target, and the Republicans want to raise enough money to make sure it doesn’t stay on the target list very long,” said GOP political analyst Katy Atkinson.

“They’re trying to make sure she isn’t caught by surprise like she was last year. They never expected the money and ads that went up against her,” Atkinson said.

In 2002, Musgrave beat Democrat Stan Matsunaka, a former state Senate president, by 13 percentage points, but her winning margin against Matsunaka last year dipped to about half that following a barrage of unflattering television ads.

I thought most elected Republicans were busy trying to figure out how to distance themself from Our Glorious Leader.
