Tinfoil hat time: Is Clarke signalling that Bush might not run?
[CLARKE:] So let me say here as I am under oath, that I will not accept any position in the Kerry administration, should there be one -- on the record, under oath.
(transcript Times)
Well, I thought, that disposes of the "it's just politics" angle.
Then again...
Parse those words, since Clarke strikes me as a man who chooses his words very, very carefully
Clarke voted Republican in 2000....
Would he serve in a Republican administration... If Bush were not the head? Suppose Bush pulled an LBJ, as an act of statesmanship, chose not to run, handed the $170 million to.... Who? The Arnis™ can't run yet...
Well, we can dream, can't we? It's late....
