Where are Bush, Cheney as election nears?
Out of sight because they are the ugly reminders.


Washington (CNN) -- Dick Cheney is certainly not one to hold back on how he really feels. George W. Bush, on the other hand, has been mum.

Despite their differing approaches to handling the post-White House years, their absence on the campaign trail has been obvious.

"The former president has been very quiet since leaving the White House in 2008, other than appearances related to fundraising and the establishment of his presidential library," said political analyst Bill Crane. "The vice president has primarily been visible on issues such as national defense and has traditionally not been the strongest fundraising draw."

2. The new Republican guard has been anxious to move past the Bush era
since well before he even left office. Had Bush exited with decent poll numbers he'd be out there campaigning like Clinton. But that ain't how it went.
