'Joe Biden and his nervous followers are desperate to run against Trump. Like Trump, they look forward only with trepidation at the prospect of facing DeSantis. Now, if only Pence, Christie, and the others would go away and let that happen.' -hgurdon
It is almost impossible not to yawn at Mike Pence’s run for president. Maybe it’s because the Earth still has to revolve more than 500 times before Election Day 2024, but I think it’s that the former vice president hasn’t the slightest chance of winning despite being conservative, fluent, godly, and experienced.
Pence, however, has name recognition and a smattering of support among evangelicals, so he’ll siphon a few percentage points away from real contenders and make former President Donald Trump more likely to win with only a plurality of the votes. Among the other candidates, former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley checks boxes on race and gender and is accomplished but lacks fire. And Sen. Tim Scott is a real talent, smart, engaging on the stump, with a great story, but he’s making no headway so far.
