    I question his dedication to the job at hand versus aiming for national office. He was DOGE , not very good at that, then wanted Vance’s seat. When he didn’t get that call of a sudden he wants to be governor. I have no confidence in his dedication.

      Really? I'm not disputing, just questioning. He was pretty quiet on social media about it. Perhaps there's stuff that we didn't see.

      then wanted Vance’s seat.

      Yeah. That was a rumor, but I have no reason to doubt it.

      When he didn’t get that call of a sudden he wants to be governor. I have no confidence in his dedication.

      Agreed. It's almost as though everything he's done is perceived as a stepping-stone to something bigger/better.

      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        Exactly. I refuse to vote for anyone like that regardless of party.

          Beware of someone who seems too slick.

            Right here in River City!
            With a capital "T"
            That rhymes with "D"
            And that stands for Donald

                Vivek announced his candidacy for governor today.

                Education is extremely important.

                  I wonder if DOGE would have run any differently if Vivek was involved?

                    I’ll be voting for Dave Yost. Ramaswamy’s a smart guy, but too much of a gadfly.

                      He had a different idea for it and there was a time when the two ideas were going to coexist.

                      So the other idea was to pour through tons of laws and regulations and identify bottlenecks that slow down economic development. I suppose the idea would be to repeal them in a single bill or in some cases through agency action. Such an effort would have been totally orthogonal to what Elon is doing and I think should still be done.

                      Only non-witches get due process.

                        It would be a much more disciplined approach. I’d like to think Musk was doing the same but I see no evidence of that.
