      After doing weeks of phone banking and door knocking, my read is that it was the economy and being unwilling to break the mould. They were more of the same and they were uninspiring.

      It was so rare that I would run into people who wanted to talk about foreign policy.

      You’re a fool if you think that’s the reason why.

      The average American voter doesn’t give a shit about brown people dying in the Middle East.

      It’s only about your football team winning, oh and women are too “emotional”.
