Yet another example of how the Republicans love to elevate caricatures rather than viable leaders. This guy is the Republican answer to Barack Obama? Oh I see. Because he's an "exotic" guy. The Republicans have this twisted dress-'em-up flight suit way of looking at people. They can't see beyond the facade. People want a woman? Give them Palin, even though Palin had none of the qualities that made Clinton a great candidate and leader. People like African-Americans? Give them Steele, even though Steele is a great big nothing. People like war heroes? Dress up Bush in a flight suit and bingo! War hero.
