The article focuses on the results of the 2002 mid-term elections in the U.S. President George W. Bush may have lost the 2000 election, but he won the 2002 election, with a good deal of help from Democrats who took a dream scenario and turned it into a political nightmare. The Democrats post gains in battles for statehouses, but the victories were even fewer and farther between than had been anticipated. Bush, as Republican's Campaigner in Chief, made himself the critical player in the election races.
