This was a sad statement. Unfortunately, I fear that Fred’s campaign has contracted the worst thing that a campaign can have… cantwinatallitis. And, when the momentum from this disease in a campaign slows down, so does the money (or in this case… it never started)… and so does the support. That is what we are seeing here. Everyone likes to be behind a winner (except Detroit sports fans).
It is really tragic. Because, Fred could have won this race. What was the hold-up? Why did he wait to jump in? And, who where the idiots who sold Fred on the idea that he could run a campaign unlike any other… make some cameo You Tube appearance, now and then… and everything would be fine.
WRONG. I don’t care who you are… nobody is above the system. You still have to run a campaign… you still have to raise money … you still have to be on television… you still have to participate in debates… you still have to work states for a year or more before the primaries… all in the name of being a credible candidate. Somewhere, somehow, someone convinced Fred that he was above all of that. Truly, that person did Fred and this country a disservice.
