I forget that about Dawson, I recall now how disappointed I was at hearing that.

Still I doubt either he or Blackwell (who shouldn't lose points for getting his ass kicked in a horrible pro-rat election, especially since running the RNC is a diffrent skillset than personally being a candidate) would be as incompetent as Steele was. That's my primary quibble with him, not his ideology (which wasn't great either).
