But Bush spokesman Dan Bartlett insisted that low-digit VIP license numbers are a tradition among Texas elected officials.

And before you knew it, the Dow had stabilized, wavering between 100 and 150 in the red, and then spent the afternoon chugging back toward zero, re-clearing 10,000 along the way.
