Republicans: who would you pick for 2016?

Yeah, he seems to be the “Grown Up” conservative candidate. His problem is figuring out how to stand out in the field of 20+ candidates when he doesn’t have strong name recognition.

Based on his Wikipedia, he doesn’t seem insane. I’ll have to read more about him.

Not an issue in a Republican primary. Since our side actually pays attention, a good debate performance could vault him to the top pretty easily.

Mainly because he isn’t running (yet), right?

Same thing that happened to Christie and Jindal. Don’t worry; he’ll have worked his way through the entire field, both actual and potential, before the first caucus.
