there is an interesting article in today's financial times that compares biden to keir starmer and praises the value of "boring" candidates who appeal to those who are not obsessed with politics.

there are references to josé mourinho, no drama obama vs "maverick" mccain (article doesnt use the word maverick but i remember queen wasilla calling mccain that), and various other presidents and prime ministers throughout history.

there is also embedded in it a comparative theory of the electorate in the usa/uk (and the media as well).

it's a good piece actually, whether one agrees with it or not...

Political obsessives demand that leaders should be inspirational, but swing voters aren’t so needy
