I heard some UNL students today wondering aloud how a visit by the president is supposed to "pump up the base." Well kids, I'm afraid it does work. Conservatives, you see generally have a positive, at times very positive, view of authority. They tend to think that history is moved by great individual supermen who are either followed or obstructed. A right-winger typically sees nothing wrong with considering a politician to be a personal leader and quite frankly does'nt care much for those who think that this is wrong.
Now why is this the case? I would say that it's because of repressed homoerotic leather-slave fantasies, and maybe you agree. But in the end, it doesn't matter why. Scott Kleeb will lose.
