Kristol's French Will Get Fried

Well, Bill Kristol’s “impressive”, well-known, and respected third party candidate is a veteran, staff writer at National Review, constitutional lawyer, and resident on Tennessee whose name is…David French. Yes, I’ve never heard him of him either, and I follow politics pretty closely. As I noted in an earlier post, it would take an enormous financial and organizational effort to get on the ballot in more than a handful of states, and a little bit of name recognition would also help in that regard. Unfortunately, Mr. French brings nothing to help in any of these areas.  In fact, today’s news buzz about Mr. French will probably be the high-water mark in exposure for Kristol’s candidate.
