President Bush draped his arm around Michael S. Steele yesterday and praised him as a "decent, honorable man" at a fundraiser that added $500,000 to the lieutenant governor's campaign for the U.S. Senate.

Steele, considered a rising GOP star, was heavily recruited to run for Senate, and Bush's visit signaled the high level of support the national Republican Party is prepared to give him in the effort to pick up a seat in heavily Democratic Maryland.

Speaking to a crowd of several hundred inside M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore, the president lauded Steele's commitment to education, fighting poverty and standing with the administration on the war in Iraq. But he focused most of his remarks on the lieutenant governor's character, saying Steele's mother, Maebell Turner, a Washington laundry worker, instilled solid values in her son.

"She understood the true definition of wealth and richness. ... She made her home rich in character, rich in turning hope into action," Bush said. "That's the kind of fellow you want in the United States Senate representing you."
