The example that typifies and proves the general case -- every rightist is this same way and same type: incompetent. Information challenged.

"I think it would help drive the story that I AM willing to fight, that I've got QUALITY people out there fighting in MY defense, and that this thing could take a new turn or a new shape; it has that potential."
