Bush’s first freebie
After months of limiting his political events to fund-raisers, President Bush will attend his first no-door-fee political event of the year on Saturday in Sellersburg, Indiana.
The White House says Bush will speak at a rally for GOP Rep. Mike Sodrel and the Indiana Victory 2006 organization at Sellersburg’s Silver Creek High School. It will be the first of several rallies for GOP candidates Bush will attend around the country as Election Day (Nov. 7) approaches.
Sodrel is being challenged by Democrat Baron Hill, who held the seat for six years before Sodrel beat him two years ago.
First Lady Laura Bush is due in the district on Wednesday for a Sodrel rally.
The president, the first lady and Vice President Cheney also each have headlined fund-raising receptions for Sodrel this year. White House Press Secretary Tony Snow is due in the district next Monday to help raise money for Sodrel’s re-election campaign.
