GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- A Democrat is charged with punching a local Republican leader and a life-sized cardboard cutout of President George W. Bush, according to police.

Authorities say David Philip McCally, 55, is charged with misdemeanor battery and criminal mischief for the Thursday night scuffle.

McCally, an instructor at Sante Fe Community College, was headed to a restaurant when he stopped inside the nearby GOP headquarters and punched the presidential cutout.

McCally said he meant it in a lighthearted way. But Alachua County Republican Executive Committee chairman Travis Horn followed him outside the store, and the two exchanged words before fists few.

Police say McCally threw the first punch, and Horn suffered a cut lip and injured nose.

But in Horn's words: "If I have to take a beating every day for George W. Bush to be president, I'll do that."

ME: I wish I could take this guy up on his offer.
