The first sign of a quality consrvative POTUS candidate is that the Left really hates and despises them.

[June 29, 2011] Voter ID laws in TX, GA, SC (history of voting rights discrimination) concern Dems WASHINGTON — Sixteen Democratic senators want the Justice Department to look into whether voting rights are being jeopardized in Texas and other states that require photo identification in order for people to vote.

The lawmakers wrote Attorney General Eric Holder on Wednesday to express concern that millions of voters do not have a government-issued ID - particularly older people, racial minorities, low-income voters and students.

..........."The senators are seeking vigorous enforcement of the Voting Rights Act and federal civil rights law, which bars different standards from being applied to individuals within a jurisdiction. Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act gives the Justice Department significant authority to review laws before they are implemented in states with a history of discriminatory voting practices. Three states subject to Section 5 - Georgia, Texas and South Carolina - require a photo ID in order to vote. Texas and South Carolina enacted their laws last month."

I don't agree with that at all. The left despises a lot of low-quality candidates too. It may mean they are conservative. Doesn't mean they ought to be president.
