IN DESPERATION, MCCLELLAN ATTACKS HIS OWN MOTHER'S BACKER:

CBS's 60 Minutes II will interview former Texas Lt. Gov. Ben Barnes, who now admits to helping Bush get into the Texas National Guard and avoid combat during Vietnam. In anticipation, White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan attacked Barnes, saying "It is not surprising coming from a longtime partisan Democrat." Barnes, however, gave his endorsement to and is a top fundraiser for Republican Texas State Comptroller Carole Keeton Strayhorn – Scott McClellan's mother.
