How do you typically evaluate the quality of candidates?
You see if they win their elections.
No, it is how well they serve their voters. Winning elections in the first place is only part of that. The GOP isn't choosing candidates like Walker and Dr. Poz because they're just going to be super duper good dudes who will dutifully and competently look out for us. They are chosen because one is an idiot and the other a grifter. They will be strung along to serve whatever special interests recruited and funded them.
And no, it's not "blackpilled" to lose faith in the GOP.
