Big surprise. Another conservative christian politician hitting the skids. Good riddance!!

Nice!!

Man, I've got to say I'm so totally enjoying this. Pass the popcorn please

At this rate, we might actually have serious contenders for 2008! Wonder who the GOP rock star is gonna be? We will know if it's the Governator. An amendment needs to pass for him to run.

Any guesses on who might be next to bow out?

jeb.

Darn! I was soooooo hoping Frist would run! I even considered giving him $50. Now the Republican primaries will be so much less fun...

Andrew

maybe frist will get a gig as a quack on ER.

That's pretty funny Andrew!

Would be worth the 50, just for the mailers you might get. Double points for a long testimonial packaged with a phone book of others you believe just might be interested!

He did have that looks good, but chokes in the finals appeal didn't he?

Shoot, Fifty for Frist would be great entertainment value. Can you imagine a Bill Frist town hall??? Dr. Frist could diagnose the medical conditions of members of the audience based on only about 30 seconds of video! That would be really popular. Do you think the E! channel will eventually sign up him to do something like that right after "Dr. 90120?"

Andrew

Hell, they signed OJ. Frist should be a no brainer!

I would be all over that, and can you imagine Stewart and Colbert! Manna from heaven.

Bill Frist chose not to run for president so he could spend more time with his family ... and diagnose strangers based on snippets of video.

Also paramount in his decision was his realization that he had absolutely no chance of even winning the nomination.

Yup, he was going to be TERRIbly SHY of VOtes. That's TERRI SHY-VO for short.
