Nethercutt tells GOP delegates U.S. is winning war on terror

NEW YORK -- Hoping to boost his uphill Senate candidacy, Rep. George Nethercutt on Monday told Republican delegates that under President Bush's leadership, the United States is winning the war on terrorism.
"And we have fought terrorists on their own soil and not in this city, my city or your city," Nethercutt said in a brief speech at the Republican National Convention. "I have been proud to stand with President Bush to fight this war on terror."

Nethercutt, who trails Democratic Sen. Patty Murray in the polls, praised Bush's leadership on other issues as well, saying the president has fostered economic growth, reformed health care and defended the nation by creating the new Department of Homeland Security.

Nethercutt was one of seven GOP Senate hopefuls to address the full convention, which opened Monday at Madison Square Garden. Nethercutt's speech, like that of other candidates, lasted about two minutes.

Republicans portrayed the speech as a sign of the party's confidence in Nethercutt, and noted that Murray did not address the Democratic gathering in Boston.

4. That won't be necessary
All GOP candidates are under orders to 'make it up as you go along.' The pResident is setting a terrific example!
