Duane Sands? I don't think so.

Duane Sand: Not ready for prime time Seeking GOP Nomination to U.S. Senate Criticizes ‘Debt Ceiling Debacle’; Won’t Commit to Supporting Sen. McConnell for Senate Leadership

“ Sand threw his hat in the ring once again because, as he said in a statement announcing his candidacy, North Dakotans can rely on his "unswerving commitment to core principles." Bul*shit ” “ ” The proper opening for my kind of guy would have been— First of all, that "Super Committee" you spoke of is another useless mechanism by congress to avoid taking meaningless action, ever.   That was not leadership, it was a shell game and everyone knows it, so why play these games? The proper answer to "would you vote for McConnell for Senate Minority or Majority Leader is No. That  disinfo about the Tea Party getting what they were after demanded this response — What planet are you from?  The Tea Party wanted  immediate spending cuts in excess of a $1 trillion with no raise in the spending cap.  What we should be discussing now is turning the economy loose by getting government off  our backs. What I heard was a mealy mouthed professional candidate without convictions and without balls.  Who else is there in North Dakota?
