Not standing a chance was an extreme choice of words. Maybe I should have said something more like, have their work cut out for them. I actually meant that I don't think anybody could have done better than him because of the circumstances stacked against an intellectual politician. Until something is done about the sorry state of the media and the revisionism of history and the economy, I just don't see how a campaign based on logic and reason will work as well as a movement based campaign.
