Wait.... if George W. Bush was such a horrible governor, why did Texas vote for him as President?
He's popular as all getout in Texas (yes, I'm from Texas), and he was a great uniter. If he has one big fault in Washington, it's that he's an outsider and hasn't become entrenched in their petty partisan bickering, nor will he tolerate it. That's why the Beltway crowd hates him so.
Myself, I think the Presidency should be held by an outsider. DC politicians on both sides are pathetically misguided, and more concerned with funneling pork to their constituencies so they can stay in office than they are in acting as responsible stewards of OUR tax money. A governor from outside the Eastern timezone is a great counterbalance to the shady actions of Congress.
