I am all for the most thorough vetting of our candidates possible. We’ve seen what inadequate vetting does.
" the most thorough vetting of our candidates possible” means the certain destruction of all viable candidates. The Democrats will see to that, if they can. You need not trouble yourself over the possibility that we will elect a Republican Obama.But it certainly is true that we have come down a long way from when it was an issue to some that Jane Wyman had divorced Reagan, to the point where two remarriages is no biggie. And from when Sir Walter Scott, refusing bankruptcy and even the charity of rich friends, made it his life’s work to pay off his debts after a financial reversal.
