An interesting topic.

My liberal relatives overweight the importance of the so-called "Ick Factor."

It shouldn't be a popularity contest.

Miss Rubin is a RINO, at best, isn't old enough to have known what Nixon was really like, only what others claimed he was, and is very wrong about him! Mr. Nixon WAS a "likeable" guy! He was a true gentleman, very intelligent, harried by lefties beyond belief for most of his adult life and REALLY connected very well with most people.

This is a stupid article and not worth what it cost me to read it; which was nothing monetarily, but a waste of my time...which is valuable to me.

Jen Rubin must be rolling over in her living hell of a grave to write something positive about Ted Cruz.

I used to joke that the name of her column should be, “Why I hate Ted Cruz and everyone else should too”.

“Nixon was no more likable in 1968 (than in 1960). But he won that year because the country was in crisis

Nixon won in 1960 too. JFK has his daddy and mob boss Sam Giancanna to thank for the massive fraud in Chicago that led to JFK “winning”.

Dis-likability is an advantage for Cruz, but a liability for Trump...

Yet another example of the Cruzbots adopting Libtard reasoning.

To his credit, Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas admits he is not a warm and fuzzy guy.

Yeah, just ask his kid.

"Cruz isn't likable -- and that's an asset"

Charlitans start out as "likable guys."

[Puzzleman]

Cruz is strong and dedicated and does not sacrifice principle to expediency. That makes him capable of changing the direction of this nation at a time when we desperately need a direction change. It also makes him unpopular with those who want to continue to reap the benefits of the corruption that is destroying our nation.

Vote Cruz!

[Flick Lives]

Cruz is like Nixon... only less likable... with a grating voice... and not born here with two American parents.

[dynoman]

That is precisely why Cruz will NOT beat Hillary. Cruz will not get enough crossovers and independents to overcome the majority parasite vote.

[dynoman]

It’s stupid to think not well liked is an asset.

“What I will say is I’m a pretty driven guy. That has pros and cons. I have always been a very driven guy.”

I’ve noticed he will do or say anything to win. Must be another one of his core principles.

[ObamahatesPACoal]

Nixon & Spiro were way cooler dudes than Cruz.

[philman_36]

... Ted Cruz of Texas...

Of Canada is more like it!

He's transplanTED.

[miss marmelstein]

Driving me home? Didn’t he get pulled over by cops for having open booze in his car?

But he’s right. He’s an egotistical, power-crazed man with not a scintilla of warmth or recognizable human qualities. That is why he uses that Uriah Heep voice when he tries to project sincerity and hide his relentless ambition.

[Enduro Guy]

Ah... I see. Then that must mean that Trump’s 30% favorable rating is golden!

Good Lord save us...

[Robert DeLong]

Yeah, well our guy is even less likeable and even more driven. So there. Ours is better in every aspect.

P.S.
He winning as well. With more votes and more delegates.

[Spok]

Who cares if anybody likes him. The surgeon who removed my cancer was a pompous, arrogant, egotistical sob, and an absolute genius at what he did. I would never choose to be around him, unless my life depended on it. This is not an election for student body president; it’s is the selection of the one person in who’s hand the destiny of the free world may depend. Give me a g—damn break.

Generally speaking, repulsive, beady-eyed, greasy, nasal whining, televangelist types aren’t winning many presidential elections. At least not since TV became a major factor.
