Tony Snow Undecided on White House Job

Snow said today that "The most attractive thing about an offer from the White House at a time like this is...you've got to put your money where your mouth is." On the other hand, he also said, "Who wants to take a pay cut to become a piñata."

Tony and his family have been through a great deal in recent years, and I wouldn't be surprised if he ultimately decided against taking on a demanding White House job. If he decides to do it, I think he'd be terrific.

As a side note, one can only imagine how some commentators will harp about Fox News being "pro-Bush" if Tony takes on the White House job -- never mind the large number of liberals who move back and forth from politics to media and back again.

Thursday Evening Update: Negotiations apparently continue between Tony Snow and the White House, according to The New York Times. The new Chief of Staff, Josh Bolten, "has been focused on finding a new White House press secretary with good contacts in the Washington news media and a deep understanding of how they work."
