I would support him if he lost some weight. He doesn't come across as healthy and I would worry about the stress and traveling that comes with the job.
*runs*ducks*hides*
I don’t care about his fat. He’d have to do a serious, sincere 180 on his gun grabbing ways and rebuke his own prior statements.
You don’t need to hide. He is a little “overly portly”
but I love the way he talks! LOL
He simply doesn't look Presidential. I know that it is silly to pick a President because he looks like a news anchor - but it is also silly to make up your mind on who you are going to vote for based upon 1 minute advertisements on the TV - and that is what most Americans do.
Also, he is very conservative..... for New Jersey. For the Republican base, once they got to know his positions on actual issues, they wouldn't accept him as genuinely conservative.
Sort of the “Scott Brown” effect. After he won (and he had that news anchor look!) there were even FReepers (who should have known better) chiming in with “Scott Brown for President”.
That enthusiasm took a cold shower when they realized he was STILL a Senator from Massachusetts.... a.k.a. more liberal than most.
