What is missing - and needed - is a moderate independent candidate, who could be the new John Bell; and Angus King is just the thing. As a true independent - not an ersatz independent like Bernie Sanders - whose Senate seat is not up for re-election this year, King would neither burn any bridges nor risk anything by running.

So run, Angus, run. Hopefully the Reform Party will offer him their line.

He's already endorsed Hillary.
