The only thing worse than a career politician is a failed career politician—a chronic campaigner, if you will. But beyond being a bad personal investment for voters, perennial politicians do serious harm to the conservative cause as a whole. Political Baggage: Instead of having a strong contender in the General Election, Republicans are left with an unelectable candidate voters have already rejected at least once before. If we want a state government packed with capable conservative fighters, we have to stop backing these chronic campaigners and see them for what they really are: perpetual losers. It is time for conservative grassroots voters to be ruthless in our vetting.
