Thanks for asking.

You can read my thoughts in this essay, today. After you read that, see what remains.

You do have a few misstatements and a lacuna or two; maybe we can take that up on that thread, after you read. If you want. (c8

RE your post #62 - I think that is a good essay you wrote there, Dan, but you really did nothing in it but convince me that I am right, especially when you wrote the following:

I understand that it is usually better to move the ball successfully one yard towards the goal, than to fail gloriously in going for an impossible touchdown.

"Failing gloriously" is exactly what I think will happen to CA if Arnold wins this -- because it is impossible to get CA out of its mess when the captain of the team has no idea how to get to the goal line, or who to put on the team, or anything at all about football.

McClintock is like the experienced captain who lacks only some name recognition. And, ironically, his problem, in my view, is very much like Gov Bush's problem was when I first starting writing about Gov Bush, as people knew "Jeb" as the son of a president and the brother of a president, but they really did NOT know him as GOVERNOR OF FL. That is one reason why I called my series about him and his record as gov: "The Jeb Bush Noobdy Knows."

If McClintock is the captain who has the years of knowledge, experience, ability, skills, talents, and vision -- if he is -- then, maybe people should learn his name.

Maybe you should be writing an editorial series examining his record up close for FR. And, you can title it "The McClintock Noobdy Knows."
