I'm sure everyone likes him for different reasons, but what I like is that he appears to be an intelligent guy with good ideas on how to build things from scratch. He is open-minded and my beliefs are very close to his regarding sustainable development. I also appreciate that he is against guns in a state with many gun owners. The fact that Denver has become one of the most green, hip and innovative cities during his time as a mayor is I think something he should take credit for. And while I am in favor of legalizing marijuana, I like his stance on the issue, since I personally believe that using marijuana for non-medical reasons is a total waste of time. Plus, his response about cheetos and goldfish shows that the guy has a sense of humor and is indeed a real person and not just some robot who says all the right things like many other politicians are.
I didn't really think much of Patrick, but I liked his speech at the DNC and after doing some research it seems that he has done all the right things in MA, and bringing them back on the right track after Romney's disastrous term.
I also like Booker and Castro.
