<< The parents and running mate of presidential hopeful George W. Bush rallied behind the candidate amid revelations of a 24-year-old drunk driving arrest, claiming party politics were at play rather than a legitimate concern.
The incident in Kennebunkport, Maine, which surfaced Thursday evening, has also set off accusations of "dirty tricks" being used to throw Bush off-message as his campaign against Vice President Al Gore heads into the final days.
The Bush camp verified the arrest after Fox News Channel reporter Carl Cameron questioned the campaign Thursday evening. A reporter for a Fox television station in Portland, Maine, was first tipped to the story Thursday afternoon.
GOP vice presidential nominee Dick Cheney said his boss's arrest was "old news" and urged the party faithful to pay it no mind. "The important thing is we keep our eye on the ball," he said in a tour of swing states.
Cheney had two drunk-driving convictions in his 20s, which were disclosed 11 years ago when he was nominated as defense secretary. Cheney gave details to the Senate committee considering his nomination and asked that they be made public, but the committee kept them secret. >>
