25. Or maybe he'll let Palin take the fall in 2012
lay low, hoping people forget the legacy of his father and brother, and then focus on 2016.

3. ...until next year. Sorry, I'm not gonna fall for the banana in the tailpipe routine
Up next, Poppy Bush is not running for President again, W is not leaving the WH early and monkey's will no be flying in the near future.

Politico sucks. They actually call this "news".

19. If he became Senator, he couldn't run for Prez. as an "outsider" or "maverick" or "agent of change"
And you know how important that is to GOP candidates.:eyes:
