Few Weeks of Anonymity Doom Presidential Campaign, Vilsack Goes Back to Lifetime of Anonymity

We've all been a bit harsh on presidential candidate and Iowa Gov. Tom Vilsack (Wonkette refers to him as "Tim Pete Tom Vilsack") because of his lack of name recognition, charisma, any chance at all of winning the nomination, etc.

Well, apparently we got to him. Vilsack decided that being the top presidential candidate from Iowa (but not the top candidate -- or even second -- in Iowa polls), was fun while it lasted but he's packing it in. Sadly, with the first candidate to exit the race also goes the most ambitious climate-change plan.

It's too bad he dropped out. I'd probably hate his social security plan. But, environment is the number one issue to me. It's a shame to lose a candidate with a resonable plan to tackle climate change. I'm still waiting for Gore to run again. Waiting for Gore. That has a nice ring to it. It could almost be a book title.
