He is running. Better yet, his arrogance knows no boundaries. A Whashington Whispers piece (I think that is where it was) quoted him as telling supporters or someone essentially that "the nomination is mine" or somesuch. And yes, this canard is playing to the loonies. It makes sense: they are the most active and will vote in the primaries. If the grifting Hillary makes a go of it, the Kept Ketchup Boy will not go quietly into the night...
Ha. If he goes up against the Hildebeast, he'll think what Rove and the Swifties did to him was a love pat.
