Friend, I know you want to believe in Ted. I did too, before I took an honest look at what he did, as opposed to all the syrupy hype about him.
At this point there’s no profit in further debating the points I brought up. They’ve been discussed endlessly here, and Ted was found wanting by the vast majority of Freepers.
I’m afraid he’s just not all he was cracked up to be, and that’s why he’s losing the race.
You’re in TX?
