WACO, Texas — President Bush is using the last day of his ten-state campaign swing to flush out GOP and swing voters needed to keep Republicans sitting in the governor's offices of Texas, Florida and Arkansas.
Bush hits the campaign trail today for the fifth consecutive day. He'll travel to states where his advisers believe he can best help fend off a Democratic takeover of Congress and most of the nation's governorships for the first time in 12 years.
Bush's first stop is in the Florida Panhandle to stump for Republican attorney general Charlie Crist, who will be a no-show. Florida Governor Jeb Bush, the president's brother, will attend the Pensacola event in Crist's place.
After Florida, Bush heads to Arkansas where the race for governor pits Democratic Attorney General Mike Beebe against Republican Asa Hutchinson, a former congressman and federal Homeland Security official.
Before returning to his Central Texas ranch in Crawford, Bush speaks at a Dallas rally for Texas Governor Rick Perry, who leads the polls in his re-election bid.
On Election Day, Bush plans to vote in Crawford, then return to Washington to wait for ballot returns.
