Is it possible that Hillary's real problem is just a lack of affability?

Asked by stanleybmanly (24153points) July 22nd, 2016

I’m serious about this, because I feel that is critical to look at her in as unbiased a fashion as I can manage. And unlike those who loathe her, I can’t objectively agree with the assessment of her as any more foul than her peers. What I see is a smart, tough, capable woman with a truckload of ambition. Shouldn’t that be enough? or rather, if she were a man, wouldn’t that be enough? I think her problem might be more readily appreciated by a peek at a more extreme example of the fatal flaw——Carly Fiorina. That’s right, I’m talking about the charm deficit. When it comes to charm, Hillary just ain’t got it, while Bubba Clinton is just crawling with it. It’s probably what drew her to the smart hillbilly in the first place. When you consider the rather extraordinary spectacle of the show in Philadelphia, the adoration of the know nothing megalomaniac against the vitriolic irrational wrath toward Clinton, you cannot help concluding that the superficial is the ONLY thing that circus was about. The entire affair amounted to an homage to cognitive deficiency. There wasn’t a nickle’s worth of substance in the combined 3 days. It was the cult or hatred of the personality, and nothing more. And if Hillary fails to carry the election in November, I think it will be the charm thing that sinks her.
