own congressman and senators have been up to, much less this guy. If they hear treasury secretary that'll indicate stature and not much else. And most conservatives, even today's resentful populists, are impressed with status, the higher the better.

Furthermore, hearing that he was W's will tell them he's normally on "their side" against Democrats, and that's the most important thing most look for in any candidate. Will he stop the Democrats before they destroy all that's good and right in America? The ones who might be swayed by Paulson's message will of course come from those who are somewhat less knee-jerk biased.
