The reason that good people do not run is what you are witnessing right now and have for the last 20 or so years in politics.  It is getting much worse and not better.  Good people who may or may not have said or done anything in their youth, told someone she was pretty, got mad at someone and said the N word 35 years ago.  Any number of things will come to light causing people who go about their daily lives to have their lives and famiies destroyed.  Why would anyone with a good heart and soul even want to do that to themselves?  

Claims of racism is not working anymore, now its back to sex misconduct because with Hollywierd right now its the in thing and most do not survive the claim.  Bill Clinton had a long history of sexual misconduct alligations - but the D's dont mind that at all - because that was all just fake news or a right wing conspiracy, they are willing to overlook it.

At some point it is no longer about helping their fellow man, or making society better, politics will destroy the best of intentions and people.  

This leaves only the people who want money, power and control to run and leaves us with the lesser of evils syndrome. 

It sucks, our country is on the path to moral and ethical decay and I fear that it is too far gone.  All we can do is watch it die and rebuild it better then before.  If I am wrong and it can right itself that is wonderful - 

Voting for Moore keeps Jones out of the Senate with his views on gun control and abortion.  Moore will not survive long with countless hearings etc once elected and someone else will have to be appointed, but at least it is not Jones.
