The bus that has been a staple in New Hampshire politics is now for sale on eBay.
John LaBombard says he is selling the coach bus because he is retiring.
"I'm having major back surgery in August and would like to get rid of it," he told PolitickerNH.com.
Since 1995, LaBombard has driven around President George W. Bush, former Texas U.S. Sen. Phil Gramm, U.S. Sen. John Sununu, former Congressman Charlie Bass and during the recent primary season drove around former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani.
He tried to sell the bus in 2003 but decided to keep it for the 2004 election.
LaBombard said he would like to see a group of investors buy the bus and keep it in New Hampshire.
As of this posting the bidding was at $10,000.

This is amazing. I've seen this bus make the rounds. It has been a great help to the Republican party in NH. I hope the Democrats band together, buy it, and then turn around and use it to campaign in the state.
