I'm with Kingbaby and Moosekarloff (though I wouldn't use pervade as a verb) I just don't see the charisma. Clinton had/has charisma, John Kennedy, John Edwards, Ronald Reagan, all do or did. But when you're running against John Kerry it doesn't take much to be the frontrunner in this category. Anyway, it's hard to attribute Bush's lead in the polls, or overall political success, to charisma.
