Of course!

That's why the dough heads stand for anything! They are easily sold a pup via flattery.

Haha brilliant! Nothing we didn't already know mind you

It's a fairly small sample group though, and anyone that's ever been elected to office at any time was included. I'd be interested to see a more comprehensive report to see if the results differed. I imagine they would do greatly.
