Harken isn't the issue. Soros thought he could "buy" himself a politician

against Bush.

Except that Bush, at the time, was a businessman, not a politician.
Besides, what else did Bush bring to the table? Certainly not his
business acumen. Arbusto/Spectrum 7 were headed into the dumpster if it
weren't for Harken money. Personally, I just don't see a vendetta, just a
difference in political philosophy.
