Actually, stands on campaign issues are pretty much infinitely malleable and in any event can be discarded once in office. I generally evaluate candidates based on an assessment of their character, which in turn is based on their conduct in their prior office or job. I don't know what problems the country will have in the next four years, but I do want to know that the person who is confronting them has the ability to handle them and make good choices. That person's instincts and abilities are more important to me than what they say is their stand on this issue or that.
