My Take
What intrigues me about Bruce Rauner is the sheer range of his arc. A Dartmouth-educated financier who chaired a major Chicago private equity firm, he then leapt into politics and rose to become the 42nd governor of Illinois. Succeeding in a field so foreign to your own demands real grit and a willingness to be judged publicly. I have a soft spot for people who refuse to stay comfortable and instead test themselves on unfamiliar ground. Whatever one makes of his politics, the appetite for reinvention itself is worth noting.
