I won't pretend to have any real day-to-day knowledge of how the Bush '00 and Bush '04 campaigns were run. It is worth noting, however, that before running for Governor of Texas, Bush was a political hack and campaign strategist. He may, in fact, be the first former "political operative" to become US President. As such, I would expect that, when it came to the running of the campaigns, it is unlikely that he was just an empty suit letting others handle it for him.
