underdog my ass—er don't, actually

"President Bush [is] appealing for donations by portraying [himself] as a fund-raising underdog who won't have enough cash to defend himself against Democratic attacks."

Michael Moore reports today, "Bush is on pace to raise almost $200 million in time for the Republican primaries where his only competition will be his own dismal record. In Minnesota this past Tuesday, Bush raised $1.4 million by giving a 24-minute speech. That's about $60,000 for each minute of 'work.'"
