I've run two different campaigns, and have volunteered/consulted on others - after what I've seen can happen even in a state house race to family members, threats, etc....
I'd never run for office in all likelihood. Not that I wouldn't mind serving my country (again), but...not sure I'd put my family through the wringer to make it happen.
Current take on WH bids: Look for Obama and Hillary to engage in a true epic, knock-down drag-out bloodbath for the nomination - it could get so bad that the rest of the country is turned off by the eventual winner. GOP - I have a suspicion that Fred Thompson (yes, that guy from Law and Order) will run and give Rudy or Mitt a run for their money...and I like Thompson a lot - so/so on Mitt and Rudy right now....
