(46,794 posts)15. And actually any policy differences
between most of the candidates are really quite minor. As such, voters are going to be looking at the person first and foremost. I try to picture a candidate physically in the Oval Office, meeting with foreign leaders, or giving the State of the Union address.
As for Ryan, he needs to earn some respect before he tries to take down people like Nancy Pelosi or Joe Biden. I'd say he needs to walk a mile in their shoes, but I doubt he could last a block. They didn't get to where they are by luck or accident.

This is the type of behavior I expect to see in mayoral campaigns. It's unseemly.
