For what it's worth, I've met a number of politicians, some on the national level. Some Republicans, some Democrats. Most of them-- even the ones I didn't agree with on political grounds-- seemed like nice people.
I don't evaluate people on the basis of their being nice.
But then again, I'm a jerk, so you should probably ignore any or all of my statements.

Nice people can be scary, too.
From an academic site on Cold War history:
When asked during the Presidential debates if he believed in Armageddon, President Reagan said: "Yes, Armageddon could come the day after tomorrow." During his 1984 Presidential campaign, Reagan told Fundamentalist Christian groups that he believed in the Biblical prophecy of Armageddon and that this could be the generation that sees Armageddon.
_President Reagan, Oct. 1984
Now that quote doesn't make him seem scary to me...
What can I say? When I was a youngster, I found that more frightening than any movie starring a certain hockey-masked killer.
Death squads in El Salvador and other Latin American countries, probably not scary either. School of the Americas, doesn't inspire a shudder.

I just hope you don't make
all decisions based on that notion.
