I once spent a day playing golf at a nice course in Schoharie County, New York. The local Republican club was having a B-B-Q so I joined the group for a hot dog and a beer. I then struck up a conversation with the local state Assemblyman who was a Republican. Schoharie County is a farm county, I don;t even think that Demoicrats appear on the ballot. This Assemblyman was as smart and decent as anyone could be. We had a nice conversation because his daughter was a student at Amherst College and I happen to live in Amherst. My issue isn’t with people like him. My issue is with the RNC which sets the basic narrative for every national election and people who buy into that bullshit.
