      The compelling case for Jeff Flake in a presidential primary would be that he has a long record of both pure conservatism and basic decency.

      for starters, he was very helpful to then-Rep. Giffords and her staff after she was shot - and didn't talk about it.

      They are friends, which is an expectation. Also, should we consider voting against background checks in the same article to be decent?

      I suppose that's up to each of us. I suspect that if he ran, he'd run on demonstrating greater decency than POTUS.

          A cockroach I just killed has more decency than POTUS. You really set the bar low? Why?

          I'm sure he would be oppurtustic like that. Certainly sounds like he was when a public article was printed about him being alone at the hosp

          If he was there by himself and the article was public, then he made it known to somebody that he was alone. Why? Opportunistic?
