Nikki Haley is just not striking any responsive chords with many Republican voters. From Eric Peters at ericpetersautos.com:
“Nimrata” must mean something along the lines of I don’t care who you want to represent you. . .
How else to explain the refusal of this woman to concede that GOP voters do not want her to represent them?
Italics to emphasize just that fact as well as an implication. Is it not remarkable that Nimrata insists – channeling Nixon – that she’s the one when it’s clear it’s someone else? The audacity is as remarkable as it is revelatory. These people – and she is an archetype of them – think of themselves as born to lead (paraphrasing Springsteen) and us to follow.
They are the ones who know best and will let us know what that is.
Nimrata is like Hillary in this respect and both are of course part of them. It is why most of us hate them so. And it is why there is such a swell of tsunami-like populist support for the Orange Golem of Greatness, as he is styled by the writer James Howard Kunstler. This support is truly representative of what the people – remember them? – want.
Nikki Haley is an “Israel first” candidate.
