Rick Santorum did the same thing:

And yet Bush just visited Shaw's district (in which I am a resident) to drum up support-- or rather money, since Bush avoided the public at large and only attended a fat cats luncheon up in Boca Raton, then quickly departed, but not without fouling up rush hour traffic in two counties.
Shaw has been trumpeting how independent he is from Bush, so why the presidential visit?
On and take a look at our congressional district-- it is the most incredibly gerrymandered thing you have ever seen, carefully drawn to include just the richest, beachfront areas, with just a couple of middle class red-neck areas (like ours), but definitely not "gay town" or any of the Black or Hispanic neighborhoods. Old Elbridge Gerry himself woudl be embarrassed by this monstrosity.

Independent? Oh really? Working together? BWAHAHAHAHA!!! Where's the need for that? Didn't Clay hear? The Palm Beach County Republicans saved Western civilization! Want proof? Here's the 'welcoming message' on the Palm Beach County Republican's website (emphases mine). http://www.gop-pbc.org/

 "Dear Fellow Republicans, PALM BEACH COUNTY IS BUSH COUNTRY!!! From Boca to Tequesta. From the Ocean to the Lake. Men and women. Parents and children. Black and White. Hispanic and Anglo. Christians and Jews. Thousands of America-loving Palm Beachers came together to call, walk, bumper brand and sign wave. We stood up for our faiths, families and flag. We tolerated a hostile media, intimidating lawyers and phony exit polls. And when the dust had settled, and the Convention Center brought out the brooms, Florida was bright red and the “D”s were black and blue.

When you have a modest goal such as “saving Western civilization,” and you actually get it done, the English language runs out of words. “Thank you” seems so trite. And “Bless you” is not for me to say. So we will settle for going about our business with the quiet confidence of knowing that the cause was just and the mission was a success. And that huge smile spread across our face will remain for FOUR MORE YEARS.

It’s an honor to be your Chairman,

Sid F. Dinerstein, Chairman Republican Party of Palm Beach"

Perhaps I should call Congressman Shaw and ask if, in his new found spirit of cooperation, he will disavow this type of end-zone dancing.  But then, perhaps he's a bit more worried about the Dem's end-zone dancing.  I consider it a testament to my powers of self-restraint that I haven’t called Sid’s office to ask if he’s still smilin’.p>
