What we learned about him is that he TALKS---all for EFFECT. But he doesn't do follow-through. I don't know whether he's not interested or he doesn't know how, or he can't sit still long enough, but he doesn't do it.
Back in '98 he campaigned by saying, "I will remember each and every one of you". Then as soon as he gets to the Senate he starts snooping around Iowa (as early as January 2001) and ignoring the people who put him in office.
We never had a chance to get from him the obligatory promise that he wouldn't run for President, because it never dawned on anyone that someone with so little experience would do such a thing. Even after 911, he still was hell-bent on being President. He has been quoted as saying that "he liked campaigning more than he liked being in the Senate". I am not surprised.
