Glad to see large fundraising vis-a-vis Clinton but seems a bit wasteful to spend it on Ben Carson. He might be a nice guy and all but he has, in my opinion, absolutely zero chance of becoming president. A waste of money. He has no relevant experience—well, maybe more than the current occupant—but is otherwise uninspiring in the experience category.
How about we find someone with credible leadership experience? And no, I’m not sure yet who that might be. A governor, large corporate owner, someone who has proven experience. Where are the conservative alternatives to folks like Huckabee, Romney, etc. that have the experience credibility to bring to the table?
And yes, I’ll get trashed he, but I hope “we” as a collective can do a bit better than the 5-minute wonders we saw in the last campaign. Almost every week there was a new favorite, who promptly crashed-and-burned. Usually spectacularly and embarrassingly.
Waiting and looking...
Actually, I don’t have a whole lot of confidence in him. I certainly didn’t like some of the comments he made with respect to voting for RINOs because of the alternative of electing Democrats to continue what they are doing. I was more scorched earth in terms of voting RINOs out, frankly
I do not wholly disagree like I did before, but I also believe that tenet has to be applied on a carefully considered case-by-case basis.
Lastly, we’ll see how this works out. But I will tell you this: If we get the majority in both House and Senate, I have very little hope that a Boehner and McConnell will do anything substantive to stop this insane madman running our government. They will be so concentrated on trying to play the numbers game fro 2016 they will not undo one single thing this madman has done.
>>How about we find someone with credible leadership experience?
Leadership shmeadership, I want a candidate who is honest and has an I.Q. above a turnip. Anyone in politics with “credible leadership experience” is nothing more than a survivor of the great engine of corruption that American politics has become, on both the right and the left.
