The current group of GOP clowns and fools makes it fertile soil for someone of real caliber to enter the field and get the nomination; that is assuming the GOP is not made up of fools. I don't want them to be - it would be a sad commentary on the US if it was.

He was governor of a mostly rural state.

You mean New Mexico. New Mexico is no more rural than almost every other state in the union.

He won't have to, the Republicans will be spending too much time demonizing themselves.
