While I admire him for going for broke to become president, I do not think his behavior is going to play well for his election. If you claim to stand on morals and integrity, either walk the walk or people are going to notice the hypocrisy.
We needed the Senator he was, now, a lot of people, myself included, think his high and mighty B.S was just that.
Ted followed the Obama playbook to the letter:
First term Senator? Check.
Harvard grad? Check.
Lawyer? Check.
No private sector job experience? Check.
Questionable eligibility, due to birth circumstance? Check.
Why on earth do you admire that?
