Brownback backs out

Sam appears to be bowing out of the presidential race.

I marched with him in parades when he made his first run for Congress and think a lot of him, but even I couldn't get too jazzed about his presidential prospects. I'm glad he's backing out, which may provide some steam to Huckabee and boost him toward becoming a first tier candidate.

He now has his sights on the governorship, and that's where it probably should have been all along. I'm looking forward to congratulating Governor Brownback!
