Why is FR always so quick to whack-a-mole? :)

The guy is right.

He’s brave. And he’s the only one doing what he’s doing.

So lead, follow or get out of the way.

Because we aren't teeny boppers who throw our panties on the stage of every superstar of the moment.

It’s not a question of whack a mole. As I said, I like very much what he’s done so far. But he hasn’t actually DONE anything yet. He’s made a great start, but how about waiting to see whether he can carry it through.

Political leadership isn’t just about having good ideas or giving a good speech. It also involves putting those ideas into practice and/or getting them passed into law. That hasn’t been done yet.

Arnold Schwarzenegger came into office talking the talk about reducing spending and balancing the budget. He was weak on the social issues, but seemed to be strong on fiscal policy. He pushed it for a certain amount of time. And then he threw up his hands and surrendered.

Maybe a few of the RINOs will cave. Maybe he’ll compromise. Maybe they’ll grind him down. I hope not. But he needs to prove himself.
