I predicted last week that O'Malley would be the Dem candidate....cuz he's handsome and articulate. Though given brains, most women still vote with their eyes.
No one listens to the message cuz they're politicians.
I don't know if women vote for looks as much as manliness. As much as the libbers whine, there's something in female DNA that favors men who convey the perception of being able to take care of themselves and others.
Obama never would've won if either McCain or Romney had projected those qualities. Think about it....neither Gore nor Kerry were manly can-do men compared to GWB.
For that reason, Cruz is a real good choice. On the dem side, it's Webb that seems to most convery that.
JMHO
