At a recent press conference, President Bush publicly stated he was planning on staying in power which only fueled the talk on the Internet that there would be another terrorist attack and Bush would cancel the 2008 election.
This is an excerpt from the news conference:
Q: Mr. President, following up on Vladimir Putin for a moment, he said, recently, that next year, when he has to step down according to the constitution, as the president, he may become prime minister; in effect keeping power and dashing any hopes for a genuine democratic transition there.
BUSH: I’ve been planning that myself.
