Wife says no and a lot of men listen to their wifes, at least later on in life.
Wish he would... JoeA

I'd vote for him. He's got some skeletons in his closet, but overall he seems to exude honesty and integrity and those are a couple of traits virtually absent in other potential presidential nominees.
Like Joe says, though, I don't think his wife will let him. Mike

We are in complete agreement about the 'integrity' part, especially now that he has publically stated he was used and duped in the false-WMD speech to the UN.

I'd vote for him too, as President. Regardless of whether he ran as a Republican or a Democrat.

I don't think his ego could take the punishment he'd have to endure once he was in a position where he had to take a stand. One reason he's so popular is that he plays (along with McCain) the role of the Democrat's favorite Republican. He has been able to get away with it while he was with the State Dept, but he couldn't as President. He knows that, and won't run... He'll just make a career of sniping from the sidelines, where he can remain "universally loved".
