MrEMan emailed me this story. Check out the comment section. Hughes was getting hammered early on and someone must have called in the RNC to the rescue. Here's one that was quite colorful...

As a 65 yr old white gramma, I am still interested in politics that will effect the future of our children. I'm a faithful Republican, and in spite of the opposition to the war all around us, I am a strong supporter of Pres. Bush, his policies & feel he has high morals, strong faith & a good example from his parents, who not only were in the White House, but have good, common sense. Laura seems to be a lovely, supportive & intelligent companion, and Pres W. Bush is extremely fortunate to have you as his advisor & friend. I read an article about you a few yrs ago, & am impressed with your common sense, wisdom & that you needed & wanted time with your family. More power to you. My question: Are the Bushs Sr & current Pres as down to earth as they appear. Would I feel comfortable inviting them to dinner? Do either of their daughters show an interest in politic? Are either of them seriously dating? Thank you.
