Shawn, That is interesting to hear. But as far as these candidates go, my folks are my best litmus test. If my dad knows who he is, but my mom doesn’t (George Allen), he’s got an uphill battle. If both…
Philip, though we’re a year out from the presidential campaigns getting into full swing, it’s early. At this point, many hopefuls are getting overly generous looks. Heck, the other day a former aide to a prominent Democratic hopeful asked me…
