I consider my strengths a strong moral compass and not being afraid of telling the truth. Here's the rub, I know the easy path, and I choose not to take it. It's been laid out over and over to me. I know what to say to get me the furthest, but I don't do that.

My dedication to being truthful and upfront can be considered one of my greatest character flaws in the world of politics. Some cheer the audacity, but others often don't want to hear it. I have been called horrible things because I was direct.

In addendum, out of half truth and half jest... For those of you who think that cursing is a sign of honesty, I have had to work hard on not cursing, and if I do, make sure it's either witty or well timed. That's the most difficult part of all this for me.
