So far, there's nothing to hang a rejection on.

I was told to avoid the business all together because of the rejection. People would say to me, 'Don't you want to have a normal job and a normal family?' I guess that would be good advice for some people, but I wanted to act.

I'm not terribly swayed by polls at this point.

Does it win them new voters _ probably not, ... but it does solidify their bases.

It's not likely, but I can see the math.

Is it poor recruiting or a bad environment? Probably both.
