I’m suprised at all of the outrage over this column....the basic points are true. The average American doesn’t give a crap about following politics and prefers candidates because of superficial reasons. Of course people who comment on political forums don’t fit into that category, so we can all see right through Willard.
I don’t think loser Romney will win the nomination because usually people voting in primaries actually follow politics a little bit and would know that Romney is a liberal. However, if Romney did win the nomination, I can totally see a lot of Americans liking him because of his squeaky, clean image.
Obama was elected because voters are shallow.
It was the American Idol election.
