• 1. People who like free trade hope he was lying to the voters of Ohio about tearing up NAFTA. He can’t really have meant that.
• 2. People who like the idea of bipartisanship ignore the fact that he is the most partisan Senator in the whole chamber.
• 3. People who want to believe he will be an incarnation of Leftist hopes and dreams will try to believe that this list of stodgy foreign policy advisers is a subterfuge.
