He has terrible policies .  But it's easy to respect his toughness and strength.   How you think that equates to a romance is beyond me .

(In referring to the "right"'s fawning over Putin):

Whether it is true or not and whether either one is successful with their strategy or not.  The Right has put themselves in a corner where they have to appear "strong" and all times.

Shall we continue?

His policies are terrible.   I do respect his toughness, and his ability to always make Obama look like a schmuck.  But that's the difference between a man's man and well Obama.    He doesn't take any crap and we can respect that, but his policies are losers.
