REACTION TO THE HAWAII IDEA [10/28 03:01 PM]

Many readers weighed in on the idea of Bush traveling to Hawaii. The consensus is that the trip out there and back would take up a lot of valuable time, and possibly leave Bush tired (and we know Bush doesn't campaign at his best when he's tired - but then, who does?).

However, many readers also suggest that a Bush surrogate could go to Hawaii - perhaps George H.W. Bush to go skydiving? John McCain?

Also, here's a thought. Have Bush make his final campaign stop on the evening Nov. 1 — in Texas, presumably, but maybe New Mexico. Then hop on Air Force One and fly through the night to Hawaii. Arrive in Hawaii on Election Day for a rally and speech at the Pearl Harbor memorial (suggested by Vital Kerry Spot Reader Pete) talking about the importance of protecting the homeland, and going on offense against those who would seek to harm Americans, be it 1941 or 2001. Then fly back to Texas for the rest of the election arriving Election Night.

Many readers ask if I have any pull or can pass on messages to the Bush campaign. I hear secondhand that folks in the Bush-Cheney campaign read the Kerry Spot, but I don't think Rove and company sit around and ask, "So what does Geraghty think?"

UPDATE: A wise guy at the RNC e-mails in, "We gotta get Tom Selleck out there with TJ and Rick. Magnum, P.I. for Bush!"
