Sorry about multiple posts but this a fun piece! Number 12 - Rick Scott, in November after reading polls for months on end endorsed Trump, and Rubio, living down to Trump's moniker of "Little Marco" only did it after Iowa. This is like me saying the Baltimore Ravens will win the Super Bowl today as opposed to in September. But there were those early ones - April! Gus Bilirakis and Carlos Gimenez went Trump even before all of the indictments and polls. Number 12 was insightful about RDS's charisma.

This piece was like, but what about...and then number 30 would feature that issue! Yet consider Benjamin's 34 and 35, two seemingly at odds arguments that could both be true. This comprehensive list captures all of the problems with RDS from that first day Twitter blunder (he was supposed to be brilliant at execution) to continually flunking the beer test (who would you rather have a beer with). RDS did not help his own cause. But the "what if" question we will never know is what if the Dems did not launch all of the indictments? Haley is charismatic, and her campaign seems better managed, and she is about to be clobbered in NH AND her home state. Oi.

Too bad those of us who are short and socially awkward will no longer have a candidate to represent our interests…
