John McCain and Newt Gingrich were the most accessible politicians I've covered. Obama and Mitt were the least. Who won?
@rchammond true. BUT I also think this speaks to temperament and style. Newt actually likes journalists.

@mattklewis@rchammond Sad truth is message discipline is success mantra of politics. If only garrulous McCain of 2000 had beaten Bush. -
@waltershapiroPD@mattklewis 'sad' is correct. I attribute voter apathy to a lack of authenticity in candidates. -
@rchammond@mattklewis Most candidates are as robotic as call center operators. A McCain, Newt or Howard Dean win would have upended this.
