If I didn't know better I'd say he threw the election.

Ah, someone that has thoughts like I do.
I never thought that he tried to throw the election, but I did think he was lucky that he didn't win. Perhaps Warner had the same thoughts when he chose to bow out of the race. Bush has stated more than once that some other President will have to fix the Iraq problem (and likely all of the other Bush foreign policy f*ck ups of six-eight years.) The poor sucker that wins 2008, needs to be both damned good and lucky.
