I’ve Been Wondering This For Several Years

Kevin Drum:

This is the central mystery of George Bush: How does this man-child with such an obviously mediocre mind manage to generate such intense loyalty in so many people?

The comment is directed toward his staff, but can also be applied to many voters.
I get appreciating a president if you agree with his ideology. Or in some cases (not the present one) being attracted to his personality. But you listen to some of the people at his staged events, and they sound as if they believe Bush is God’s gift to humanity. Not only is it odd, but frankly it’s a disturbing.
