In an attempt to help his sagging poll numbers, President Bush is taking it to the road. He'll be going to the Ken "Talking Points Action Figure" Mehlman's well quite often. 9/11 and WWII will be his focus in trying to persuade America that we "fight them over there so we don't have to fight them here" mantra. If President Bush has as much luck in convincing America now as he did with the often lampooned Social Security tour, look for his poll numbers to drop again.
