It is too early to declare, why give the left so much more time to destroy you?
You’re right about early commitment begetting sustained attack, but we need at least enough indication to start raising money and to unify, and to limit jump-in’s, so we aren’t divided 6 ways from Sunday, fracturing again conservative money and unity.
We’re at risk on both fronts, admittedly. But money and unity coming together EARLY is happening in every camp but ours.
