Being a cool head in a cabinet meeting is not the same as being on the campaign trail. That is all I'm saying - that running as a candidate is different than serving as an official. It's just as simple as that.

And your point about what people want or that 2016 will definitely be different certainly isn't proven. Come November the results may very well be similar to 2016 and we need every vote we can get. I prefer someone whom we KNOW has successfully run and won an election.
