Sound like nobody else will. They’ve already decided that she’s not pure enough. And we wonder why we have trouble getting good candidates. Sheesh.
Not pure enough? Being pro-illegal alien is a huge step back from “pure enough”. She is a disaster and does not deserve our support. And you must be joking on “good candidate”….when we have one then you will be able to complain about us not supporting YOUR “not completely pure candidate”.
No, I think you have to realize that there is no such thing as the perfect candidate. We act like a bunch of groupies here who want a hero we can swoon over instead of a competent politician, most (but not necessarily all) of whose positions we share or feel we can work with.
The end result is that year after year, all of the more conservative candidates are eliminated at the start, sometimes for nothing more than a rumor or a name somebody in the blogosphere or on talk radio has attached to them. Meanwhile, the Romneys and Christies of this world proceed calmly ahead because they know that the conservatives are out there looking for a knight in shining armor and they’ll never find one.
