Take the money and run
The latest trend in Republican politics:
1. Bush or Cheney makes a fund raising appearance for an incumbent running a tough race for reelection.
2. Said incumbent, conveniently, has pressing business back in Washington or the State House and is unable to attend the fund raiser himself.
It's like some kind of black bag job. The incumbent takes the money generated by a presidential or VP appearance, but there are no pictures of the incumbent with them, so his Democratic challenger can't use those photos as ammunition come the Fall.
Sad, really.
