Reply #16: I wish our party would stop worrying about what Repubs do or do not want

and just trust ourselves to pick the candidate who can best reach the American people.

All this back and forth about who they REALLY want to run against is just blather. Look at this thread, with people rehashing who they (i.e., republicans) wanted in 2004 -- They were afraid of Kerry! No, they were afraid of Dean! No, they were afraid of Clark! Bah!

The point is that anybody can make any argument for what Rove et al. are doing. They want X! But what if it's reverse psychology? What if it is reverse reverse psychology?! Again, Bah!

If we all just vote for who we think is the best candidate, ignoring what the opposition may or may not want, the winner will be the best candidate.
