The only Republicans I see with active presidential ambitions populate the pompous Senate and pontificate primarily for self-gratification. Few if any Senators actually could run the country with even minimal competency. Voters tend to reject legislative personalities for good reason; John F. Kerry's flip-flopping best exemplifies Senatorial decisiveness and leadership. The overwhelming majority of Senate Republicans, moreover, belong to the RINO caucus and concede far too readily to any Democratic spinster. As Bush so often tells us, the President must make tough decisions constantly, not dither endlessly blabbering nonsense until his opponent falls asleep.
