[EL] The perverse effects of public funding of election

[Margaret Groarke]

-- to spend on this race, doesn't encourage him to quit either. Or his
personality, or the fact that he's been doing really well in the polls
until quite recently, or the fact that quitting would require him to
entirely rethink what he has spent his entire adult life doing . . .
