1. Well, "Duh." He won't live thru the next four years, much less...

be alive for another four. What was he thinking by saying such a nonsensical thing?

[fertilizeonarbusto]

2. Why should he?

He's already been president. Been there, done that.

[Miami Liberal]

8. Yep

My sentiments exactly.

[Johonny]

3. He won't run because...

He's planning on being appointed. Voting that's for the lower classes.

[barb162]

4. yeah, it's a real crying shame

[aden_nak]

5. Why bother running? There are other Bushes to prop up as figureheads!

[flordehinojos]

6. does that mean that the pushies are not willing to steal another election

for him?--does it mean that the pushies consider him good only as an ass wiper and puppeteer string master? o! but for the grace of God what things we do learn about the pushies and their support of diaper wipers.

7. I never thought he would run. In fact, I thought one of the reasons

Bush picked him as running mate back in 2000 was so that, if he was elected to two terms, he could "appoint" his successor as GOP nominee.

9. Say it ain't so, Dick!

:cry:

10. he's not running because he's not electable.

And the pubs know it; he's too intelligent, and that doesn't play well among red-state voters. They like good ol' boys who talk like nascar drivers. They'll get another simple-minded bible thumper that they can manipulate. You watch.

11. Who asked him?
