Best Gubernatorial Candidate
Neil Abercrombie
There are political leaders who seem born for their jobs. They exude confidence, inspire those around them and generally get stuff done. They are strong without being tyrannical and just without being nagging. Then there’s Neil Abercrombie. Don’t get me wrong–he’s a smart and nice guy–but the words “confidence” and “leadership” just aren’t associated with him. After all, charges from Democrats of his sending inexperienced staffers to the Capitol dogged him for nearly all of his first two years in office. I suppose Abercrombie did fine as a back-bencher in the U.S. House of Representatives, but as governor of Hawaii, he comes off more as a the state’s chief academic than its executive. @apignataro
