No White House Run For Frist
Republican Sen. Bill Frist of Tennessee won't run for president in 2008, FOX News confirmed Wednesday. Frist, the outgoing Senate majority leader, leaves a long list of potential contenders considering a campaign for the White House. A formal announcement is expected later on Wednesday. Frist will end a 12-year run in electoral politics where he rose in the Republican ranks to the position of majority leader. Other potential Republican contenders include Sen. John McCain of Arizona, Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani, Sens. Sam Brownback of Kansas and Charles Hagel of Nebraska, Gov. George Pataki of New York and Rep. Duncan Hunter of California.

Personally, I think Chuck Hagel is the one for the Republican party is 2008. He is a solid conservative (on fiscal and social issues) and is strong on defense and foreign policy. He doesn't have the baggage of Iraq that many of the other candidates do and he has the civility that the people have called for in this last election.
