Baseball owners back Bush in White House bid voters
More than a dozen current and former baseball owners and family members are among Bush’s top re election fund raisers. Seven are Bush Rangers with at least 200000 each and six are Pioneers at 100000 plus. The AP finds contributions from owners of over half the teams and from players and coaches including Bobby Valentine. Bush’s baseball ties span Yale to the Texas Rangers and Bud Selig era.
