Conflicted

Mitch Daniels has decided not to run for president.

He sites family as his reason for not doing so.  On one hand, I applaud his willingness to put his family before his political career.  It's refreshing, and it's not something you see done very often at the national level.  On the other hand, isn't that just the kind of guy you'd want running?  One who doesn't lust for the power of the job like a crack addict lusts for another hit, kinda like the current resident of the Oval Office?

Ah well.  We'll see who else comes out when we shake the tree a few more times.
