Daschle Beats the Voters to the Punch

Tom Daschle (remember him? He used to be somebody in the Senate) has announced that he will not be running for president:

He served as a senator representing South Dakotans in Washington for more than 25 years and has invested more than a year laying the groundwork for a presidential campaign.

Tom Daschle was expected to make a decision about running for president by the end of the year, and Saturday afternoon, he told KELOLAND News he has decided not to seek the United States' highest office in 2008.

“I've made a decision that I will not seek the presidency of the United States,” Daschle said.

I have as much a chance as winning as Daschle did.
