Comments on: For those who say Cruz isn’t “likable” and lacks humor

It’s interesting to me that he makes a handful of unimportant mistakes (e.g. “mutton lettuce and tomato salad”). That, to me, says that he doesn’t have a perfect memory, but rather a very good memory.

He also has good taste in movies.

Now, I *do* wish he had some executive experience. Can he deal with a 3AM phone call? I wish we knew.

J.J. –

Bill Whittle is also great at this (and in general at making conservatism attractive to superficial people). And if I’m not mistaken, he and Cruz have had a few conversations.

He does a much better job mimicking Crystal and Kane than Hillary does mimicking a southern black woman.

Yep, that humanizes Cruz. Now what he needs to do is incorporate some of that wit and humor into his presentations to the voters. He needs Jonah Goldberg (a man who incorporates a lot of humor into his political ranting) to help write his speeches.

Oh, I understood. Just want to emphasize spreading it around.

“And since that’s the way it is, that’s why spreading videos like this around is important.”

neo,

I hope you took my ranting about “not running for Favorite Cuddly Uncle, or for Sugar Daddy Huggy Bear” the way it was intended: *not* at all as a criticism of your post, for featuring the videos, the rationale for which I do understand; but as a criticism of the dominant culture, in which we serfs dwell.

(I trust you know the rest.)
