That may be so, but apart from Romney and a few isolated others the Republican Party has no moral center. I could be wrong (happens on a regular basis) but I don't see any scenario in which Haley can win in the primaries.Haley will appeal to swing voters because she seems to have a moral center. — frank
Can we just rename it "Election 2024" — Baden
