Will Bush become head of the GOP when (if?) he leaves office?

[Atman]

Isn't that supposed to be the way it works? The outgoing president is titular head of the party? Yikes. Scary thought. Like I don't have enough scary thoughts these days!

[MercutioATC]

1. With numbers in the low 30's? I doubt it.

Hell, he can't even hold his own base...

[Virginia Dare]

2. That would be awesome...

a washed-up drunken drug-addled moron as their "leader"? What could be better?

:rofl:

[WI_DEM]

3. In the old days the last nominee is the "titular head" of the party

which would mean that the '08 GOP nominee would be the head of the party. John Kerry is the Democratic titular head of the Democratic party.

[Atman]

6. Doesn't matter. I just like saying "titular."

Seriously, thanks for the info. I didn't know that.

[Wickerman]

4. God, but I hope so

not sure how to type out Taps on a keyboard, but if I could that would be the theme song for the GOP with Bush** in charge.

[hippiechick]

5. His arse will be heading straight to the nearest pub.

He won't have to hide it anymore. :beer:

[alfredo]

7. No, he will be the

butt boy on his cell block.

[cyberpj]

8. Fine with me. Remember, everything he takes on he turns to shit. nt

[whistle]

9. When Bush leaves office, his electrical monitor will be disconnected

....and the first generation cyborg unit known as George W Bush will shut down and be stored away in the closet. Then the second generation Schwarzenegger model will be brought out and tested, but in all likelihood be rejected. The Cheney cyborg model will be hot-wired and run until it shorts out.

[elehhhhna]

10. nuh-uh! It goes directly to the Hall O' Prezzidents in Orlando, Florida!

Everybody knows THAT.

[whistle]

18. Ahaaa, there you go, I forgot about that. This was the first Disney

...automatronic Hall of Presidents dummy to have been in the White House. :rofl:

[elehhhhna]

19. the good news: Disney promised to do repairs so it can speak properly

[whistle]

22. Actually they will make him sound like Goofey

[MADem]

11. NO, Dean is head of our party, NOT Clinton NT

[Ganja Ninja]

12. When he's done they'll drop him like a bad habit.

Why would they want a bumbling, mush mouthed, know nothing moron like him running the party? His presidency is running the party into the ground just like everything else. I'm sure they'll be relieved once he's out of the picture.

[kurth]

13. Let him run the GOP - into the ground

He's got an incredible record of success running the country.

[Atman]

15. Hey...I think you've discovered the first thing he's succeeded at!

Running the GOP into the ground!

[Norquist Nemesis]

14. Well, I doubt Carlysle Group will hire him

but I figure Bush will hightail it to "The Ranch" and take up fiddling...in Nero fashion.

[theHandpuppet]

16. No, but only because he's too lazy

Being the head of a political party is hard work, like bein' Prez.

[Arkansas Granny]

17. I doubt it. Unless the GOP thinks they can get some more mileage

out of his name, I think they'll be through with him. They've gotten all they can get out of him already and with his approval rating as low as it is I expect they will be just as happy to see him retire to the pig farm in Crawford.

[saltpoint]

20. No. I think even the Republicans will be happy to wave bye-bye

to the pretend cowboy.

[warrens]

21. Well, Gotti ran HIS crime family from jail

So I imagine Smirky could run his.

[redqueen]

23. I wish! n/t

[sweetheart]

24. He'll be hole 13 on a golf course

People will play his hole to land a ball in his mouth from 300 yards.

[lpbk2713]

25. Nope. He'll drop out of sight and spend all that money he stole.

It's hard work thinking of ways to spend hundreds of millions of dollars in ill-gotten gains. And it's even more difficult when you're under the scrutiny of the public eye.

[madokie]

26. I'll say he will have his hands so full of legalese that he won't have

any time to devote to the re:puke:s. Also not sure the lines of commucations will be there to support that, considering where he is headed.

[Lisa]

27. but won't he find that hard if he's already standing trial for war crimes?

(I can always dream!)

[calico1]

28. I sure hope so!

He will singlehandedly bring down the GOP!
