They Could Have Gotten George W. Bush to Run the Dodgers

But they chose a former partner instead:

Thomas Schieffer, the former Texas Rangers president, has accepted the job to oversee the Dodgers and "all of the franchise's related entities," baseball Commissioner Bud Selig announced Monday.

"Schieffer, an investor in the ownership group headed by George W. Bush and Rusty Rose that purchased the Rangers in 1989, was the club president from 1991-1999 and the franchise's general partner from November 1994 until June 1998," Selig said in a statement.

Can you imagine what would have happened in the Hollywood leftist community if Selig had chosen Bush to run the Dodgers? That would have been absolutely hilarious.
