I’d say the gift of gab has actually served him well. It can’t be his brain or the deep thinking it has produced, his pluggian looks, or the content of his cheapskate - <.01 % -charitability - content -of -his-character, or his hedge-fund- cheating-family-connections-brother -and - son. So what’s left except the gift of gab? Impeachment insurance for BO?
Actually, his looks (way back when) and his first wife pulling out in front of a truck before Christmas (killing herself and their daughter, and badly injuring their sons) garnered him great sympathy from many Delawareans of the fairer sex.
