This turns out to be a false impression Rich. In case you missed it
I'm reposting this relevant information:

Corky,

Don't the verbs that are used in these articles bother you? He promoted, he
argued, he urged, he talked ... These aren't doing verbs and it's not like
there was opposition to what he was saying. There's no great political
courage here. He grabbed a safe topic and made it a center of his political
career. Later, running for president, he promoted himself for taking this
safe position. As you can see from the discussion going on in this group,
that's not the kind of thing that impresses people.
