From drip, drip, drip to splash, splash, splash
A portrait of "Bush Country" in Prescott, Arizona:
If anyone knows how the new Prescott presidential politics might be eclipsing the old, it's Larry Bowser.
On Saturday, the retired salesman wore his usual American-flag vest, tie and 15-gallon hat on the town square in an effort to attract voter registration. From what he's seen recently, the Bush supporter says, he's becoming part of a dying breed around here.
"Most people I talk to are critical of the president," he said. "I think Bush is in for a real battle for reelection, even in a conservative place like Prescott. I've had people change from the Republican Party because they don't like the job he's doing.
"My stack of conservative voters is getting thin while the Democratic pile is thicker than ever," Bowser said.
