And then there's this, you missed this too? Or just blocked it out?
Here's this, again posted
BEFORE he stepped down:
The key thing tho, is he/the party cannot let on for a second, not the slightest, that he's not 100% committed because if he shows the slightest doubt...then you you have someone that appears they're not 100% committed to being POTUS. And people arent going to vote for someone that's not totally committed.
So he'll be 100% "the guy" until...he's not.
--and--
He cant just say, "hey, if so and so wants to run, I can get behind that." He cant say, "well who else do you have?"
Because just by saying those things...he shows he'd be willing to walk away...which HE CANNOT DO if he wants to win. He has to show 100% commitment.
Right up until he/the party decide someone else should run, if they do.
--and--
It's strategy. In anything, business, politics, war, when you strategize, do you tell your competition everything? Do you hold back critical info? Do you show "ambiguity?" Do you open yourself up to questioning? Do you show weakness?
He needs to campaign right up until he/the party decides otherwise.
Get it now?
