Donald Trump s selection of Indiana Gov.

Job fairs -- with their implied concern for the jobless -- are far less confrontational than those town halls full of venting voters, like those that gave John McCain an earful last month. They want to vent a lot of their frustration to me, and I m more then eager to do that, McCain said afterwards. There is no wondering why elected representatives prefer the quieter setting of job fairs.
