you.
Like Huckabee and Buttigieg, Scott is a likable and charismatic orator. However, he recently stumbled badly whenScott briefly landed on a 20-week ban, which was counterintuitive for a guy whose candidacy presumably rests on strong showings in socially conservative states like Iowa and South Carolina.If you’re keeping score, it took Scott two days to figure out his abortion position.
