Kasparov Drops Out of Russian Presidential Race

**morphy@rookhouse.com** · December 12th 07, 02:27 PM posted to rec.games.chess.misc

Garry Kasparov told journalists today he is abandoning his bid to
become president, blaming problems organizing an official meeting of
supporters to put him forward as a candidate.

I admired what he was doing, but was also worried that he was going to
have an "accident". Hopefully, he will have time to play chess in a
limited capacity now.

Yeah, isn't that special. "President" Medvedev and "Prime Minister"
Putin. Is anyone else having flashbacks of the 70's and 80's ??
