I don't do pay walls, so I could not read the complete article.

That said, one of the reasons that I support RDS (and Pompeo in second place) is that they have made far fewer enemies and appeal to a broader spectrum of voter.

It's worthwhile recalling that there are 8 years of new voters from 2016, and that many older voters from the time have "gone west".

Dem ads will attempt to frighten new and low info voters , and if the GOP nom is Trump, they will be easy to scare (impeached, charged w crimes, "porno star", lots of material for the ad writers. No, it's neither fair nor accurate, it is what it is, however, and quite effective.) One reason that we had Trump for 4 is that voters were (justifiably) frightened of Hillary.

Trump also fights the telegenic reality of someone his age, weight, and even hairstyle. (Again, not saying this is fair, however this is presidential politics for this millennium.)

That's your metric for picking our leaders... You want to call a friend? Tsk tsk. Vote for Mother Teresa then, she has no enemies, she is not born in USA, and she is dead. A perfect candidate for you, so is you are going to waste your vote, make statement
