Voters might have mixed feelings about the prospect of yet another Bush presidency, but within the big-money circles of the Republican Party it's a different story. In an article that focuses on how supporters of embattled New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie are shifting their allegiances to the Bushes, Michael Barbaro and Nicholas Confessore at The New York Times report that affection for the Bush clan remains deep among donors:
