Bully Pulpit

The term "bully pulpit" stems from President Theodore Roosevelt's reference to the White House as a "bully pulpit," meaning a terrific platform from which to persuasively advocate an agenda. Roosevelt often used the word "bully" as an adjective meaning superb/wonderful. The Bully Pulpit features news, reasoned discourse, opinion and some humor.

From National Review Online:

When I heard the "big endorsement" that Fred Thompson had picked up was from the conservative journal Human Events, I admit, my first response was, "Didn't they endorse him already?"

They're a fine publication, he's a fine candidate... but was anybody on the sidelines, saying, "I think I like some candidates, but I'm waiting to see which way H.E. goes"?

I don't think there are many 'big endorsements' remaining out there. As I noted earlier this year, Nancy Reagan won't be endorsing until there's a nominee. I don't expect Margaret Thatcher to come out and endorse one. Rush proclaims his non-endorsement, even though he's made his beefs with Huckabee and McCain clear.

Anybody left?

George H.W. Bush? Jeb? Arnold Schwarzenegger?

Mark Sanford in South Carolina? Charlie Crist in Florida?
