Nice try but, that cliff is a little higher than you think.
A single issue is not a winning strategy in business or politics.
You need a minimum of three important issues to illustrate your understanding of the target audience requirements or needs.
You can have up to 5 issues but you need to have considerable skill and experience to keep them all alive or at least consider three of them to be primary objects with the others supporting your overall proposition.
Without a multiprong strategy though, you are just another so and so and Dead In The Water.
Go back to taking care of your daughter and reconsider this when you have really thought through your ability to be a candidate and ultimately prevail in an election.
Buh Bye.
Vendome...that is somewhat harsh, coming from such a well respected FReeper.
The point is, that someone is daring to throw their hat in the ring against Boehner. I totally agree with you about the one issue premise. It’s a losing situation but if Boehner sees that there is someone (and this guy may not be the only one) to challenge him, he might tighten up a bit and STOP COMPROMISING.
I hope that there are others willing and able to challenge him.
In any case, we need a more conservative Speaker.
