A bigger problem for a politician, one can not have.
From the Champaign News-Gazette on Illinois Treasurer's Candidate Mike Frerichs:
But (Mike Frerichs) clearly doesn't know what he really thinks, and, when candidates don't know what they believe, they say whatever seems convenient at the moment.Voters can understand politicians disagreeing with them. What they can't understand are liars and folks who will say ANYTHING just to get elected.
