Asa Hutchinson Is Still Running

Former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson (R) is still running for president, despite not qualifying for the last few debates, Politico reports.

“His candidacy is testing the limits of just how long a dignified, accomplished conservative — the kind who brought a southern state’s Republican Party into relevance — can withstand rejection from his own party’s base. And it’s all in the hope that somehow, some way, his message will break through.”

Said Hutchinson: “You’re asking me about risk of embarrassment? People have risked their lives for the country. Am I supposed to worry about whether I’m going to be embarrassed in a contest, politically? I think our country is more important.”
