Occasionally we need leaders who are grown ups. Some who does some thing necessarily but unpopular...doing a job regardless of polls and focus groups.
Or to put it in terms of popular culture (which is all some people can understand) a political Doc Martin.

You can't always get what you ask far...sometimes you get what you need.
Now, where have I heard that before?
