... he's never seemed, to me, suited for politics. He comes across as... well, not too smart. Also, a bit creepy... like someone you wouldn't trust to take your kid to the park. Now, to be fair, I think he's probably just in the wrong job... out of his element. I think he's probably really smart at something and may be a really nice guy. Just don't think he's great as a political leader.
