[Paine in the Neck]

Unfortunately, you need a lot more qualifications than being a firebrand.

I never said you didn't. You seem intent on picking a fight instead of offering your own solution. Who do you think should have the job?

I wasn't picking any fight. I was pointing out what I thought was faulty thinking.

I have no idea who should get the job. I don't know who has the best ideas, the personality, connections, AND legislative skills to get the ideas implemented. People are enthusiastic about Cruz, for example, (and I like a lot of his ideas too) but has he ever been able to get a bill passed?

I think that too often people think that speaking ability thru the media is all you need (I'm not singling you out...I don't know if you think this). This is a very, very common problem on the right IMO.
