The reason we are in so much trouble in this country is that people vote for candidates when they look all pretty and nice and then crumble under pressure.
I have no doubt that Trump would come through against the terrorists or China or India or whoever. That is all I care about.
I saw a man last night under attack who would take none of it. That is all that matters.

You may not like the way voters react, and I may not like it. But it’s the hard, cold reality. In my opinion, “grouchy” is never going to win.
So I think the GOP needs to nominate somebody who looks “nice” and who always acts the gentleman — like Reagan — but who has a deep understanding of the issues and doesn’t bend under pressure. Trump just ain’t that guy.
(Walker may be, Perry may be, Fiorina may be, even Cruz if he ever learns to smile.)
