Surveys show first lady outpolling Bush

[rawstory]

By ANNE GEARAN, Associated Press Writer

NEW YORK - If the pollsters are right, first lady Laura Bush really is the president's better half. Polls show Laura Bush is more popular than her husband, which may be one reason the president gives her star treatment at his own campaign events.

Last week in Albuquerque, N.M., before the welcoming cheers had subsided, Bush told supporters he was sorry that his wife was not there.

"Today I'm going to give you some reasons why I think you ought put me back in there, but perhaps the most important one of all is so that Laura will be first lady for four more years," Bush said to applause.

Laura Bush's prominence and popularity in Bush's re-election effort will be on display Tuesday night, when the first lady addresses the Republican convention in prime time.

1. She has this "duh" look on her face

Is she real or some type of Stepford wife? Look at her! She looks totally bizarre in that picture. And he is looking right past her.
