number 7 would be a big enough microphone

people who aren't milquetoasts tend to not be saints

that's true

but you can balance it out

Cruz had too much saint-iness

what do you mean by personality cultist?

that they revere someone else like Reagan/Trump

or that they have a tendency to form a cult of personality around themselves

someone who ties their leg to a candidate and has none of their own ideas

Didn't Cruz get into a bit of trouble a few months back, he was caught liking porn on twitter or something like that?

that was a staffer, and it died out pretty quickly

@FLanon I wonder if that was a calculated stunt to make him seem more human

haha

you know why Cruz lost the general?

Among other things,

Recognition

he has a _really_ unfortunate face,

Trump had a brand, he stood out

what I mean by this,

is that Ted Cruz has the face and hair of a used car salesman

so when voters looked at him, they saw him as a liar

you would be surprised how many voters base their vote on how the candidate looks

they did studies on this,

when people have no information on what party a candidate belongs to,

or what they stand for,

they will vote for the candidate who looks more attractive

yeah, that's actually my biggest concern about the Saccone vs Lamb race

Saccone looks like an old corporate sleeze

Lamb looks like a fresh, young, helpful neighborhood familyman

and that's a problem

so in other words, we need a bunch of chad populists running everywhere in the country

@FLanon Yeah, Chads are the kinds of people who win elections

Chad populists even moreso

look at Trump

not necessarily,

either chads,

or people are friendly and really pleasant-seeming

imagine a Mormon missionary

I mean, those aren't completely mutually exclusive

in any case, yeah, we need fresh guys who know what they're doing
