I won't pretend to have any real day-to-day knowledge of how the
Bush '00 and Bush '04 campaigns were run. It is worth noting,
however, that before running for Governor of Texas, Bush was a
political hack and campaign strategist. He may, in fact, be the first
former "political operative" to become US President. As such, I would
expect that, when it came to the running of the campaigns, it is
unlikely that he was just an empty suit letting others handle it for
him.
What campaigns did he work on besides his father's unsuccessful reelection
campaign? How well do you think he would have done without "the
Architect"?
