OK...This Brian Chase guy is really bringing the 'right wing' out of me in a big way...We've been going back and forth the last couple of days on Tom Campbell's FaceBook page. My love of debate started with this SNL clip from the late 1970's.
Here's the last two exchanges...I love debate.
Brian Chase: Again, thank you for confirming my point. The Republican base thinks name calling = argument. Nominating Campbell would be a move away from all of that. Therefore the Republicans will not nominate him. Unfortunately, the Republican base is too wedded to its anger and silly class resentment.
I do respect the chutzpah necessary to consider an ex-CEO the "non-elitist" in the race. Welcome to Bizzaro World.

Brian McQuaig: Brian, thanks for setting me straight. I sure don't know what we'd do without you doing our thinking for us. But, please explain to me the logic behind your remark about CEOs and non-elitists. Is it your contention that because someone went to school (and actually applied themselves), learned how to run a business, created jobs for people... is that how you define elitist?? Are you flippin' serious?
How about considering the person who has spent their ENTIRE adult life in public service. Never made a dime creating a product or service. Never added anything except the burden of taxes to pay for their sorry ass. Who should be the ruling class in this society? The ones who actually make something of themselves and enrich their lives and the lives of others by their actions? Or should the ruling class be those parasites that feed off of taxes, create laws that get in the way of a free and productive society (enter Ms. Boxer). Well my dear namesake...its neither. The day a ruling class is formalized in this nation is the day civil war breaks out. Brian, your IQ can't be that high that you use the old, "name calling means your ignorant" ploy.
Please continue your eighth-grade-debate-team arguments here and I will continue to tear at you. However...all this fun still doesn't erase the fact no matter who wins the nomination, someone has to beat Boxer. Mr. Campbell is the only one close enough.
