Rep Tim Ryan (D-OH) dropped out of his “long-shot presidential campaign” yesterday stating, “I got into this race in April to really give voice to the forgotten people of our country: the workers who have been left behind, the businesses who have been left behind, the people who need health care or aren’t getting a quality education, or are saddled by tremendous debt, … I’m proud of this campaign because I believe we’ve done that. We’ve given voice to the forgotten communities and the forgotten people in the United States.” What he really turned out to be was the voice of the people who forgot he got into the race.
One wonders what it was like to be part of his campaign team over the last several months as it almost immediately became obvious that he wasn’t getting any traction then and had no promise of changing his circumstances. Now expand that thinking to the, at least, more than ten remaining Democrat candidates with equal prospects. How do their campaign workers feel as they show up for work in the morning; what thoughts about their PlanBs do they have going through their heads as they try to figure out why they shouldn’t be going home early and look for a real job? As you contemplate these deep thoughts, the updated scores of this little derby are given below.
