From what I know of Phil C's abilities and personality from this community, I think he'd be too intelligent to run. It seems as though doltdom has become almost a prerequisite for the candidates. That's why the really good choices don't run, or have absolutely no chance of winning. The other prerequisite is, of course lots and lots of money, either theirs or and/or someone else's. I am now off my soapbox. That's my rant for the day, so far. ;0)
