    Interviews for lawyer positions are tougher than most interviews. The reason is because an interview is a lawyers chance to advocate for himself. Interviewers think, "if he can't advocate on his own behalf, how can we trust him to advocate on behalf of our clients?"

    Carly couldn't advocate on her own behalf. It is true that having never been elected is a significant hurdle to overcome, but she still failed to overcome it. As someone running for president, you're trying to convince a nation that you're right for the job...and she blew it. If she can't spin her own credentials, triumps, and skills into a winning story...how can she be expected to do so for Cruz?

    But that doesn't mean there is a better choice. Also the intellect that goes into lawyer interviews is far greater than into the ballot box. You don't hire a lawyer based on soundbites and demographics, but that's the main way you get elected officials.
