When a candidate for public office faces
the voters he does not face men of
sense; he faces a mob of men whose
chief distinguishing mark is the fact that
they are quite incapable of weighing
ideas, or even of comprehending any
save the most elemental - men whose
whole thinking is done in terms of
emotion, and whose dominant emotion
is dread of what they cannot
understand. So confronted, the
candidate must either bark with the pack
or be lost... All the odds are on the man
who is, intrinsically, the most devious
and mediocre....
