The Donald is out

Well, that came a little sooner than I anticipated, but it's a wise decision on his part: Donald Trump says he's not going to pursue the presidency after all.

His reason: He's sure he could win, and he refers to polls that show him at the top of the field (yeah, but that was 2 weeks ago, before the fall). But, he says, you can't run for president half-heartedly, and he's really a business man at heart and not ready to leave the private sector.

What he doesn't mention is the wide-spread ridicule and scorn with which his antics have brought. I think it really wounded the big narcissist in him. He didn't know he was so unliked and had made such a fool of himself. That's pretty devastating for a narcissist: to have that self-inflated balloon punctured.

So far, Newt/Nut is still banging that bunny's big bass drum of energy and perseverence.

The field just got a little less colorful, and a lot saner.
