13. Thanks. Remember, corrupt as the media is, a story's a story
and one of the most reliable plots is the hopeful underdog one. If he defies that old oxymoron "conventional wisdom" and hits the ground running, the excitement of the moment and the message can very well propel him forward. It's going to probably be a mere month before the whole thing's over.

He's a good guy; hopefully people will see that he's really got a shot and get swept away with it.
