Bush receives positive poll bounce from Regan death
Still trailing in late October.

Former President Ford begins locking his house at night and posting security outside.

8. In other words, if an ex-President's death is GOOD for Bush's*
numbers, the other ex-Presidents should be on alert. haha Or something.

6. *snicker*.... but Ford was never beloved
so a current bounce for bush due to todays news... wouldn't send forboding signs to Ford in the fall. For another bounce they would have to look for a big hero... something like digging up Goldwater... truth is, for all their bluster, they just don't have that MANY superstars who would be able to give another bounce (if one occurs in the first place) for bush. Newtie? nope... Fallwell or Robertson.. only a narrow constituency even among the rel. right. Nah... I think that clumsy Gerald Ford would continue to be safe to stumble over the next parkinglot cement divider... and the next escalater entry ramp... etc. ;-)

10. Ford's death wouldn't boost chimp in the polls...
If the guy were a Republican politician now, he'd be kicked out for being too liberal.

12. Surprised they didn't freeze dry him, and break him out in the fall
Along with Bin Laden, as a "two-fer" around the convention. No disrespect intended to Reagan; all disrespect intended to George W. Bush, Rove, Cheney, et. al.
