His problem has never been the race pimps. They can be handled easily by a secure, capable politician...like George W. Bush, for example.
His problem is that the majority of rank and file members of his own party wince whenever his face pops up on the tube.
Well, you should tell your Senators to vote for somebody else for Leader. They just voted, unanimously, in October to re-elect him.
The GOP Senators, it seems to me, get to have as leader whomever they want.
I don't wince. He's not my first choice, but he's a hell of a lot better than any Democrat who's in there, or John McCain.
