Saying that anyone with an ounce of political sense knows you get ALL this stuff out right up front! That's why he (Tom) never ran for office when asked because there are some things that probably wouldn't play well with the media shark-pool! It was not fair to President Bush or anyone in the Party to have held this back and that he shoulda done like "W" did about the drinking problem... yada... yada... yada!!!
Just like Deborah K. Saunders in the SFO rag, he was stupidly showing his lack of political acumen by saying that Simon should just step aside now and let some other standard bearer take over. Tom should "stick to business" because as was pointed out on this thread earlier... we've had the primary and write-in campaigns NEVER work!!!
He was sounding so emotional and ignorant that he was embarrassing to a higher degree than anything Simon has done, or not done. The hard part is... I really like Tom and listen to him regularly, even his Saturday replays!!!
