…there are actually folks living in America who want to see Alan Keyes run for president, at least according to Mr. Keyes. Now I’d like to think I’m not that far removed from what constitutes “mainstream America,” and I simply can’t understand why anyone would think Alan Keyes would have a chance in hell at winning the Republican presidential nomination. Granted, the Republican presidential field is relatively weak, with each candidate having his fair share of negatives, but I don’t see Alan Keyes adding anything to the Republican race that isn’t already there.
But for argument’s sake, let’s just say the miraculous happens and Alan Keyes wins the Republican presidential nomination. Is he actually delusional enough to believe he could win the general election against a Democratic candidate like Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama? After all, we saw what happened the last time Keyes faced off against Obama. And let’s not forget Alan Keyes is the same guy who in three Senate races has never won more than 38% of the vote, not to mention he’s crashed and burned the two times he’s run presidential campaigns. I’m left to wonder who exactly the “we” is that Alan Keyes seems to think need him.
