He doesn’t know how to raise money, in his competitive district that means he’ll lose sooner or later, if not in the primary then to a democrat, not this year probably but, in 2016? Bad politicians tend not to last, look at Jean Schmitt in Ohio, she had much closer races with democrats than she should have and finally lost the primary in 2012.
He lost the special election for the last 2 months of McCotter’s term to a nobody rat, after having won the GOP primary only because no one else was on the ballot. He only won the general election for the full term because the newly redrawn seat was slightly more Republican and the democrat (a different one than in the special) was a Pakistani.
He’s no Amash, I’ll give you that, his record is fine, he doesn’t appear to be the giant Paultard Amash clone I feared he’d be.
But I don’t want to give a seat away to democrats out of some need to defend a fluke winner because he’s a good guy. We need good guys who know what they’re doing, especially in non safe seats.
I respectfully agree to disagree with you guys on this. I prioritize crushing the marxist swine, too much you may think.
