"There are a certain level of donors who are just not going to turn out for anybody but the president." Bush is expected to visit the Medina mansion of Peter Neupert, a Microsoft Corp. vice president.

Bush's schedule has him in the state for less than three hours before he heads to New Mexico for another political function. Admission to the Medina reception, expected to draw scores of donors, is $1,000. Individual photographs with the president are more expensive, at $10,000. The event should yield at least $500,000, Vance said. The proceeds will be divided between Reichert and the state Republican Party, the latter using the money for get-out-the-vote efforts.

Reichert, who highlights his centrist credentials, welcomed Bush's assistance in a Thursday afternoon statement that maintained a bit of political distance. "Although the president and I don't agree on everything, I have great respect for the tremendous responsibility the leader of the free world must bear every day," the congressman said.
