“Cult of Personality” led to Obama’s 2012 victory says former SF mayor Willie Brown. “Brown said that Democrats did not win races at the state-level in the numbers they should have and, in combination with Mitt Romney’s weak candidacy, the ‘cult of the personality’ around Obama was more responsible for his victory than the Democratic Party’s appeal.” Or maybe it was the appeal of free stuff? Either way, both will be off the table in 2016.
