Never underestimate the dems ability to manufacture votes. Bunch of mail in votes still unaccounted for.
If we can't elect someone interested in fiscal responsibility we are doomed anyway. Doomed in 30 years instead of 10 depending on the choice but things cannot continue the way they have under the last 3 presidents.Rand Paul has all the charisma of a common house plant. That’s never going to happen.
The last quality candidate the Republicans have nominated for president was George Herbert Walker Bush. George H. W. Bush screwed up with his “Read my lips” quote, but he was the last really intelligent, exceptionally qualified candidate the Republicans have nominated. We’ve had nothing but dumbasses, arrogant assholes (with quality policies but zero bedside manner), RINO’s or political lightweights since then.If we can't elect someone interested in fiscal responsibility we are doomed anyway.

Personally, I don't care about charisma. But I've began to warm to the idea that culture drives politics and not the other way around. Part of that means having charismatic candidates, I suppose. I just think issues should be driving people, not charisma.…with a capital “C”? I’m missing your point apparently.
