Kerry Will Not Run

Sen. John Kerry (D-MA) "plans to announce today that he is bowing out of the 2008 presidential race, and will instead remain in Congress and seek reelection to his Senate seat next year," the Boston Globe reports. Kerry will announce his decision in a speech on the Senate floor this afternoon.

Kerry "plans to say he will remain in the Senate to recommit himself to efforts to extricate the United States from the war in Iraq. His decision to stay out of the presidential race reflects a realization that he would have had an uphill climb in capturing the Democratic nomination, given the other party heavyweights who are already in the race, according to the officials, who spoke to the Globe on condition of anonymity."
