Seems ome of our euro pals were threatening a trade war if he didn't, the outcome of which would have impacted California and other info tech exporter states the worst, so clearly "W" is happy to trade favor to gain the approval of Intel and the like, even if it costs him Pennsylvania in return, <br /> <br />Bush is wizzing up a rope if he thinks he's gonna carry California after letting them hang during the energy crunch, he's a walking political liability in that state. <br /> <br />My earlier observation was geared more towards the railroads will get a haulno matter what, even if all the manufacturing jobs end up going to Mexico
