Is it too much to ask for our president to simply be a decent human being?

It is, indeed, something we should be able to expect.

Excellent tee-up for the Republican surviving caucus, worthy of tacking on the bulletin board for frequent review. But the practical disqualifier is that he can't win the general election thus accelerating the Iowa GOP's descent into political malpractice on the national stage much as the D's have done statewide which has enabled the current Iowa Statehouse excesses.

But don't get me started!

Good point, Bob. The obvious reason they should reject him is because he can’t win the general election. But his base is convinced he can even though he has never gotten the most votes in any election. So they have plenty of strong reasons to move in from him. The question remains, will they?
