http://www.today.com/news/john-kerry-has-no-plans-run-office-after-current-role-2D79831106Secretary of State John Kerry says his days hitting the campaign trail are behind him.
I have no plans to run for public office again, he told TODAYs Savannah Guthrie in an interview that aired Friday.
This is my last public position I think, and Im going to try and get the job done as well as I can, the former Democratic presidential nominee said.
But he joked that its also wise never say never to anything, especially when hes got a puppy as popular as he has, a yellow Labrador retriever who has his own Twitter handle, @Diplomutt.
You know, I might run for dog catcher, he quipped. But no, Im not running. Im not running.

Kerry will be missed by us of course, but I thinksit's a good decision. And as SoS, he really found the best job wich he can fit in, and I had never saw him as happy than were he is now!

The political world left and right is so f,*ed up and personality based rather than idea based that elections in the us are a circus.
A perfect example with mccarthy. He was called nice and moderate by the dems. After these last few days, the honeymoon is finished, I hope.
