Mean? NO!
Strong and willing to fight the battle for GOOD? YESSSSSSSSSSSSS!
Mean? More like willing to break PC rules and take the fight to them. They will try their best to make him an Angry old white dude—mean spirited (They used this with success with Dole). Mean, un-feeling, racist, hate monger, Nazi, you name it—they will call him that. That and worse! They will accuse him of murder—rape and death. Mad and worse than Hitler. Look for it on MSNBC if nothing else.
