I’ll tell you one reason why I never had major battles with you like some of the other Frederales. You understand that all candidates have flaws and past positions that were in error. And instead of glossing over them as meaningless, or trying to spin them 180 degrees, you acknowledge them and move on.
Another superstar Fredhead who I admire is Ellery. Where the heck has she been??
There isn’t a candidate alive that’s perfect- and I try hard not to expect them to be. Even with Fred there were things I didn’t like- but it was the essential character of the guy I loved and respected.
It’s going to be an ugly season I fear- there will be lines drawn around Palin and Mitt (if they run) and since I’m not a supporter of either of them for POTUS I dread the upcoming battles.
Haven’t seen Ellery in ages either.
