Thune is marvelous.
He's presidential timber after a little more seasoning.
Indeed. The man is as sharp as a needle. I watched him in that last debate against Daschle. He stuck to message, he never stumbled, he was clear, articulate, confident, determined and was armed with facts the way an Apache helicopter carries Hellfire anti-tank missiles. Thune's going to go far, methinks, and I'd love to see him run for President at some point.
When I went back to school to finish my degree a few years ago (@ Penn State), I took a Poly Sci class as one of my electives.
We were all assigned a specific congress critter (and his/her district) to write a paper on and I wound up with Thune.
Needless to say the lib professor had to give me an A on the paper. I'll have to find it and maybe scan it and post it.
Ever since I researched and wrote that paper, I've always followed his career.
Dear onyx,
"Thune is marvelous.
"He's presidential timber after a little more seasoning."
Then after a term in the Senate, he must run for governor.
