Only one mention of President Bush during last night’s RNC.

Last night, Mitt Romney, Mike Huckabee, Rudy Giuliani, and Gov. Sarah Palin addressed the Republican National Convention. Between the four of them, there was only one reference to President Bush — in Romney’s pre-prime-time speech. Romney praised “George Bush” for labeling “the terror-sponsor states the axis of evil.” On Tuesday night, Bush was never mentioned by the RNC speakers.

Update

Ben Smith notes that Afghanistan hasn’t been mentioned at all.
