As a democrat? Wasn't he a republican senator?
the media will destroy him over the holiday tree story. It's all they have on him.

The guy was not fit to run a state - he cannot run the country.
Not impressed with anyone yet. |

To me, Scott Walker is pretty impressive. Not the greatest public speaker, no one is going to faint at a Scott Walker speech, except maybe the President of the Teamsters...but he has a very impressive track record. |

And while I agree that not all of them are rock stars (I love Ben Carson and Bobby Jindal, but they just don't have much gravitas), every single one of them, would be a million times better than Hilary. |

Linc isn't a bad guy in person; he clearly won't win, but he isn't any more of a fringe candidate than some running on the right; maybe he'll push the discussion a bit and get Hillary to actually take some positions.
Can it be any worse than Santorium telling the Pope, (who has a MS in Chemistry) to 'leave science to scientists' when Santorium doesn't actually listen to the scientists himself?
as far as metric; I think well in it, but some things I still work in English units... |

Agree - I think Linc is not a bad guy, just should not be a head of a state or a Head of State. He is clearly not capable of being POTUS.
He is no Gina Raimondo (more qualified to be POTUS, imo, than Chafee) |

I think he is brighter than he seems, but yes, he isn't POTUS material... |
