Herb, I couldn’t agree with you more about a ‘centrist’ not being able to win this time. I also think a whole new way of campaigning — ‘stealth’ campaigning, it might be called — may be necessary. I outline this, along with a copy of my current platform (which can use some telescoping) in my post entitled Lunacy? Or a Return to Political Sanity? to which I provide a link. I’d appreciate your feedback on it.
