Evading the question is a clear sign that the answer would not put the
candidate in a good light. It really is that simple. If GWB had
nothing to hide, he would have answered straightforwardly. That is the
nature of political campaigns, and even though there is no video of
GWB snorting coke, his answers were clear to me.
