Well, howdy there internet people, Lidsboo again.

So today we are going to talk about Nicky Haley,

and how she's going to have to play it,

and whether or not she really even has a shot.

If you don't know, she has signaled that she is about to officially announce

her candidacy, that she's going to run for president.

She wants the nomination from the Republican Party.

Does she have a chance? Yes, she really does. If she plays it just right. What does she have in her corner?

start there.

She's got money.

She's got infrastructure.

She's got the stuff you need to run a campaign.

She's pretty well liked in South Carolina. That's going to be important. She has

executive experience. She has foreign policy experience. Not great foreign policy experience, but she has some which is better than probably

anybody else that's going to run.

But she has to run an entirely different campaign and in the process she has to try to

reshape the entire Republican Party.

She has to try to get the party to transform itself back into what it was before Trump showed up.

She has to go back to like Bush-era Republicans.

She has to get the Republican Party enough of the Republican Party

to win a primary to embrace those sentiments.

If she doesn't, she's done.
