Exactly.
Most of all - we need a new generation of Republicans, with a SENSE OF HUMOR.
Who wants to follow someone who doesn't smile? Reagan radiated optimism and patriotism. Where are Republicans who seem *nice*? Wholesome. Leaders, whom one would be comfortable sharing a daily carpool ride with.
We've somehow managed to elect a bunch of humorless dolts, who sometimes seem to have selected the stuffy, officious dork who was always hanging out with the blond (Frank?) from M*A*S*H as their role model.
He's a loser. So are many current Republicans. They don't lead. They don't say what they mean. They don't stand for anything, and it's obvious every time they open their mouths.
Ugh.
WHERE ARE THE LEADERS?
Our country is full of them!
Sadly enough, our system has been played by career politicians very effectively and those "true" leaders are rendered unelectable.
