President Bush was asked at a news conference today to comment on Governor Mike Huckabee's statements in a recent article addressing foreign policy, some of which were critical of the Bush administration.

The President did not take the political bait - choosing not to make comments during the primary season. Bush stressed that he is actively raising money for the Republican Party and will give his full support behind the nominee.  He also said he thought Republicans will keep the White House and gain in congressional and senate seats.
