agreed.... but better candidate?.... no way. I don't want someone more slippery, slimy, and evasive to truth.. I want more honest government, more honest fact checkers, more honest reporting, more competent leadership, more honest poll sites, more honest society ... few takers, more workers, fewer back room deals, more 'this is what the publc' wants deal, more intelligent voters, fewer free cell phone recipients....

These are days of hindsight and second-guessing for Republicans, which is human nature after a trauma like this election loss.

There are million “why” theories out there, from the Hurricane Sandy effect to pernicious media bias. Wringing our hands over those factors gets us nowhere.

We can’t stop hurricanes, and media bias is always there. Reagan and Bush 43 won twice against waves of poisonous bias, so that is not an insurmountable obstacle.

What Republicans need is a slate of candidates that can energize the base while expanding the appeal of a conservative message.

Easy...
