This is workable, the guy is conservative enough for me at least and I have the feeling he could win. At least he would not lose for lack of adequate funding and if it was his own money being spent, we could count on him not THROWING an election the way John the “Maverick(TM)” McCain did two years ago.
Conservative enough? He is pro-abortion, pro-gun control, pro-union, and pro-single payer government run healthcare. That’s right he is to the left of the Democrats on healthcare.
He also gives to Democrat campaigns, including $50k this year to Rahm Emanuel.
Bingo.
