Rowland Has Friends in High Places

John Rowland, the governor of Connecticut, who even many local GOPers have said should resign over the many different scandals surrounding the many gifts Rowland took in exchange for awarding lucrative contracts, may have a reason for refusing to resign.

According to this article, he has friends in very high places. In fact, Poppy Bush, the president, and Jeb Bush are all offering him direct as well as indirect support in his efforts to remain governor.

While the people of Connecticut are really hurting - both financially and as a result of what their governor has done, it's wondering that the Bushes care far more about this man than they do about the people.
