We knew that. But please spare us the psychobabble. No candidate in memory was put on the couch so much as Fred, and where did it get us? He has more to say about the serious issues, IMHO at least, than all the others combined. He’s a grownup, for which he got roundly denounced as “lacking fire.” Well, time will tell about the wisdom of his positions, and of ours as well. As I keep telling my children, there is no reward for being wrong first. I would have thought Fred, whose mother is in intensive care, was entitled to a couple of hours of respectful silence. But no. What a shame.
