Politicians: They’re slick and soulless, shifting positions shamelessly to stay ahead of public opinion. Unless they’re ridiculously rigid and inflexible, sticking to their principles even when doing so courts disaster.Unfair clichés? To be sure.

They’re reminders that even politicians from the same party, who advocate the same policies, can have dramatically different personalities.
