Until such time as someone other than the passionately committed (which includes a large number of moonbats) choose to get involved in the nominating process, we are doomed to seemingly eccentric candidates who have to please the looney (but primary-voting/caucusing) wings of their respective parties. Almost makes ya long for a smoke-filled room.

That, and the fact that there are lots of good people out there who could do the jobs, but either a, the got divorced, smoked a joint, made an intemperate comment, wrote an essay in college or other disqualifying tidbit in their life – and don’t want to read the dissection of it.

Not that any of the above are true disqualifiers without context… but ya know what I mean.
