All I can say is whoever gets in better hit the ground running and not smooching the backsides of the party down there. Otherwise the voters will elect someone else to represent them in two years. Its that simple.

Me thinketh he'd be a better legislator. Evidentally, he did not work hard enough to gain the nomination.
