Take this for a spin...
You may want to put on a tin foil hat first.

If W continues on as he has, he runs the grave risk of ending up like his hero Nixon - humiliated, disgraced, and hiding.

If he decides not to run, all these scandals will probably wither on the vine, and he can live out the rest of his life like Poppy - playing celebrity golf, getting drunk, and pretending he really WASN'T the worst president ever.

Will he cut his losses, save some face, decide to fold now?

1. His pride would never let him drop out of the race...
And that, along with his overwhelming arrogance may well be his achilles heel.

2. Nope
The shithead drew a line in the sand -- "I'm not gonna lose." You know he can't abide being thwarted, he'd rather burn the White House down while sitting in it than be wrong. He's staying.

3. Hell no
"you got to know when to hold'em, know when to fold'em, know when to walk away, and know when to run, you never count your money when your' sitting at table, there be time enough for counting when the dealing done", or when you've finished fucking-over the entire world.
"Watch me drive", work, work, work it out baby, I can mash....

Its late.

4. The only way this would happen...
...would be if the far right wing of the party went into open revolt. I don't really see that happening, but if it did, Bush could conceivably be forced off the ticket.

6. "You can't win if you don't run!"
Edited on Mon Feb-09-04 12:58 AM by theorist
That's what *'s Grandma taught him. I wonder if he just filled in the "if you can't win, then cheat" part?

edit: PSA: typing too fast can cause inaccuracies in message.
