..and Kevin has his own agenda. God love him, I'm gonna go watch "Tremors" again. Or maybe "Wild Things."

MR. RUSSERT: The connection between the Bush campaign and the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, Colonel Kenneth Cordier, who was in that commercial, was on the Bush veterans steering committee. He resigned last night. But there's more. This was how The New York Times described it: "...a review of documents show a web of connections to the Bush family, high-profile Texas political figures and President Bush's chief political aide, Karl Rove. Records show that the group received the bulk of its initial financing from two men with ties to the president and his family, one a longtime political associate of Mr. Rove's, the other a trustee of the foundation for Mr. Bush's presidential library. A Texas publicist who once helped prepare Mr. Bush's father for his debate when he was running for vice president provided them with strategic advice."

Robert Perry, Houston, Texas, has given the president about $50,000 during his career. He's given Jeb Bush money. He worked with Karl Rove in a gubernatorial campaign back in Texas. Merrie Spaeth, the person who described prepping Vice President Bush for his debate, as recently as last year was in the White House preparing the president's economic adviser for a television interview. Who paid her? Who admitted her to the White House?

MR. MEHLMAN: Tim, reading that New York Times article I was reminded of that old Kevin Bacon game about six degrees of separation. The fact is this campaign has from the beginning said that the issue of what happened 35 years ago with John Kerry and the issue that happened 35 years ago with George W. Bush is not relevant. What's relevant is what is happening today.

BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
