-snip-
Kristol apparently has his eye on former Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels, Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.), Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.), Rep. Mike Pompeo (R-Kan.), Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.), retired Gen. Jack Keane, and, in all seriousness, Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito.
It may seem odd to suggest that the solution to an already unprecedentedly large field is to expand it further, the Weekly Standards editor writes. But politics is full of oddities.
And so are Bill Kristol columns.
I should mention for those unfamiliar with Kristol that, even among Beltway pundits, hes widely recognized for being wrong, about everything, all of the time. Even some conservatives joke about betting the house on the opposite of anything Kristol predicts. (Consider his recent track record on Trump, for example.)

(33,688 posts)This idiot SHPOS still gets his name in the papers? The schnook who has never been right about anything in his miserable life? The goofball who talked McGrump into picking Princess Sparklemoose because he had a schoolboy crush on her?
This character has more bats in his belfry than Bracken Cave.
Kristol continues to fill a desperately needed void.
What a maroon, credit to Bugs Bunny.
