[BunnySlippers]

He is well known and well respected on both sides for his integrity. He doesn't need to lie. He's also known for answer a simple yes or no to difficult questions. He doesn't "waffle".

What will you say if he does drop out? Sometimes these declarative statements are meaningless?

[Rabid Dog]

I don't think he is going to drop out. He learned a lesson along those lines early in his career.
