As Hot Air notes, a man of few words. Their video doesn’t seem happy to work here, so below is a YouTube of his comments.
Check out the Hot Air link for his wife’s comments, which are very good.
Modest, well-spoken, authentic, unassuming. Decent-looking without looking blow-dried. Old enough to be distinguished, young enough to still seem vigorous. Demonstrated ability to think quickly and well under pressure, combined with an “uncritical willingness to accept danger,” as The Right Stuff put it.
Word on the net is that he’s a Republican, and even pro-life. We’d need confirmation of that, of course.
Lives in CA-11, which has a Cook rating of R+3. Pombo’s old seat; lost it in Great Republican Shellacking I. We didn’t exactly put up a stellar candidate in Great Republican Shellacking II.
Those who have eyes, let them see. Particularly if you’re involved in the California Republican Party.

Moe, normal people don't want to be politicians.

Envisioning when all that is Left is the Right.
True, but we can't always do what we want.

Doing your job and doing it well
NickDeringer (Diary) Saturday, January 24th at 9:32PM EST (link)See kids what you can do when you believe in your own ability and not go through life as a victim of circumstances?
Do your job. Do it well. And don’t expect a parade for doing it.
Even if he turns out to be a Democrat he deserves our admiration…

Of course he's a conservative
tankertodd (Diary) Saturday, January 24th at 11:22PM EST (link)If he were a liberal he would have been too busy blaming his co-pilot to bother flying the plane.
Besides to fly a plane means individual achievement, and we know liberals aren’t interested in that, especially since you can’t get that from a trust fund or government handout.

So the question is can a liberal be a hero?
Tbone (Diary) Sunday, January 25th at 12:28AM EST (link)Not so far.
Envisioning when all that is Left is the Right.
Well, my dad was heroic.
Moe Lane (Diary) Sunday, January 25th at 1:08AM EST (link)And he was pretty liberal. Good union man, too.

No one said a Hero...
DONTREADONME (Diary) Sunday, January 25th at 1:11AM EST (link)has to be a hero all of the time, it just takes one act of heroism to be considered a hero. Yes, even liberals sometimes can jump out in front of a train to save someone.
Hero are allowed to be wrong too - nt
DONTREADONME (Diary) Sunday, January 25th at 1:11AM EST (link)Of course a liberal can be a hero.

only if they don't have time to think about it!
JLenardDetroit (Diary) Sunday, January 25th at 12:39AM EST (link)otherwise they won’t, as it’s against their nature to bother to be concerned enough about anything at any time to do something themselves. Always someone else’s problem….
