I didn’t say my primary concern was his lack of wherewithal, important as that is. More important, he doesn’t seem to have or show “it,” whatever “it” is that excites the electorate. That may seem shallow, and it is, but that’s how folks vote .. for the taller guy, the one they want to have a beer with, the one they think is ‘like me,’ etc., etc. etc. Like it or not, that’s electoral reality.
Santorum’s tall. :)
He’s like 6’4’’.
If you don’t like his image, that’s fine, but I have to ask - if you’re looking for personable, someone who’s looking presidential, is that really Newt? Really?
It seems to me that you’ve picked out your candidate and are set on him. Which is also ok. But I just don’t see why Santorum is lacking the “image factor”.
NEWT is astute.
Santorum'll bore 'em.
