[C. Edmund Wright]

no doubt - and I would almost concede that there may be times in history where being an “experienced executive” is the number one needed trait. It is not this point in history. At this point, we need more bold and fearless leadership rather than competent administration.

It is not this point in history. At this point, we need more bold and fearless leadership rather than competent administration.

You are right, and there are not too many people who come to mind when I think of the qualities of "bold and fearless" leadership. Arguably, more governors than senators in that category, but either way, not too many on either the left or the right.

However, I think both Scott Walker and Ted Cruz are among the few on the right who fit that description.
