The lawyers make out better than their clients a lot of times.

Yeah, no one stands out yet. Sarah has charisma, which might get her
elected, but I don't think she's a great mind. Newt is a great mind,
but easy to disagree with, and I do on several issues. Nobody I
really like yet, other than Mike Huckabee who is 100% for the Fair
Tax, and is why I like him, but he also has no charisma.
