1. The GOP is terrified.

They can't win. And they know it.

2. Will they EVER be "ready for prime time"?

:shrug:
My guess is no.....

3. Hard to have a debate in May when no Republican has officially announced...

Well no Republican that matters.

Maybe by September, they'll have a candidate or two.
