Don't know whether he can win or not, but I'm pretty sure he's it. He hasn't even formally declared yet and he's polling in the top three in spots. <blockquote>It also reflects an aspect of U.S. military culture that is very uncomfortable admitting failure. I’ve heard the same “increase troops to secure the country” line from military members and people in military families on a regular basis where I live in the U.S. South.</blockquote> "I will never surrender of my own free will. If in command, I will never surrender the members of my command while they still have the means to resist." It's definitely not just a southern thing. It's an "I'd rather fight to the death than give up" thing. And I'm from a north-eastern liberal enclave. It’s gonna be Fred. Don’t know whether he can win or not, but I’m pretty sure he’s it.

“I will never surrender of my own free will. If in command, I will never surrender the members of my command while they still have the means to resist.”

It’s definitely not just a southern thing. It’s an “I’d rather fight to the death than give up” thing. And I’m from a north-eastern liberal enclave.
