      Jeet Heer Retweeted Damon Linker

      Yes, Romney will combine the strength of Flake, Corker, Sasse and his own renown into one powerful package. Or, in math terms: 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 = 0https://twitter.com/DamonLinker/status/1080276663387213824 …

      Damon LinkerVerified account @DamonLinker
      I think it's pretty damn clear: He means to be an intra-Republican critic of the president. Jeff Flake, Bob Corker, and Ben Sasse all rolled into one, with the national name-recognition of having been his party's nominee for president less than a decade ago. https://twitter.com/baseballcrank/status/1080274259287703552 …

      Please continue to dunk on Linker. But I believe this slightly undercredits Flake. Yes basically another low energy GOP Hamlet. But on a few occasions he took real stands. Not for long and not for much. But something. And that’s different from Romney.

      Yeah, it's true that Flake is the best of the lot.

          Note to self: Never be in a group where Flake is the best of the group.

          Barring some extraordinary change in character and behavior, Sasse will remain the worst of this particular lot.

          Wow... with Marshall and Heer's ringing endorsements to motivate him, Flake is a shoo-in to heal all wounds.
