Missouri's Bush campaign praises the Internet

Leading Republican supporters for George W. Bush give considerable credit to the Internet for Bush's victory in Missouri.

Laetitia Thompson has the story from the state capitol.

Missouri's executive director for the Bush campaign...St. Louis County Representative Catherine Hanaway says the campaign's website drew in a whole new group of Bush voters.

The candidate's uncle, Bucky Bush, also says the Internet has definitely become a worthy campaign tool.

Both Bush and Hanaway say the campaign website was especially useful for recruiting volunteers and fund raising.
