35. There's a recipe for disaster
If charisma becomes the standard which we "aspire" to (and I say "aspire" with as derisive a tone as I can manage) then we are making the huge and FATAL mistake of playing on Bush's playing field.
Sorry, but I want substance. I want character. I want consistency, and I want maturity and proof of committment to the issues.
I think a lot of other people do to.
If we think charisma is the holy grail to the 2004 election, then we will have our asses handed to us next year.
i.e: I think our troops in Iraq want a little more than charisma.
