Bush-McCain Tuesday night fundraising appearance moves to avoid being seen by the press.

From TIME:

The White House: The White House confirms they moved the joint Bush-McCain Tuesday night fundraising appearance to keep the press out.

According to the Wall Street Journal Online:

President Bush was to appear together with presumptive Republican presidential nominee John McCain at a fund-raiser in Phoenix, the first time in nearly three months that the two Republicans will be seen together. With Mr. Bush's popularity at a record low, the McCain campaign has made sure that television footage of the two men together will be minimal.

Obama: “He’s holding a fundraiser with George Bush behind closed doors in Arizona. No cameras. No reporters. And we all know why. Senator McCain doesn’t want to be seen, hat-in-hand, with the President whose failed policies he promises to continue for another four years.”
