I remember Muldoon speaking at the university when I was a student, several years before he became PM. He was so incredibly rude to to the student organisers that I made up my mind then that I would never vote for his party. I had a couple of women friends who thought he was incredibly attractive!
It seems that Winston is similarly polarising: while anyone with a brain loathes him, there is a coterie of middle aged women who find him so attractive that they support him no matter how offensive he is.
