Instead, I think that the lack of charm reflects the emptiness.  I
don't think that
they are aware of the problem.  The Republicans ran an worhtless
candidate -- Bush --
but they realized that they had to give him an image, which they did
successfully.

As a candidate, however, Bush, especially the first campaign, sometimes
show humor,
which is totally lacking in the Dems.

Here is Hillary, whose campaign is run by a PR person, & the one time
they had her do
something -- cry, but then immediately shift to talking points -- a
real sign of
authenticity.  But even that quick display was the most effective thing
she did.

CB: Can't argue with that.  I'd just say that it seems you are
describing a way in which Dems blow elections, but that the lack of
charm ( and emptiness) has already been "proven"  to the American
public. That's why the American public didn't vote for them :>).
