Not that anyone gives a damn, but if I were a big-name politician like Al Bore I wouldn’t run for anything for the next couple of years.  That’s the ultimate sucker bet: take leadership just when things are ready to come-a-crapper.

I thought that the Bush administration got a bum rap for not catching Osama’s boys before 9-11 (didn’t most of the lead-up happen during Clinton’s administration) and I think that the next administration is going to be left holding the bag for what’s developed under Bush.  Residual effects of Iraq and crappy economic policies are going to doom the next administration no matter which party it comes from.

But who am I?  I don’t know s— about s— so it doesn’t really matter what I think.  Unless of course there are tens of millions of American voters who think like me, which of course means the country has much bigger problems than picking a decent President.

My strategy?  Sit it out until ’12 and then play Roosevelt (Franklin or Teddy, take your pick).
