Why? He would have won handily. This would have set him up perfectly for 2012, or for 2016. Why'd he do it? He's been an excellent governor so far.

Because bad things are coming. Governor's are in charge, they get blamed, they must act. Senators just vote. It's a choice anyone with higher ambitions would make.

I don't think he's gay.

Did you think Mark Foley was gay? Larry Craig? A Jewish Conservative?

Admittedly, no, and that last one came as a real surprise. Anyway, I just don't think he is. Call it a gut feeling. But if he were, I'd still think he'd make a good president.

In politics, it'll always be a surprise.
