I do realize that the worst psychopaths tend to look just like the rest of us (and that often people who look like psychopaths turn out to be the kindest and gentlest of souls!), but Karadzic's appearance conveys unusually strongly the illusion of someone sensitive and interesting.
My real point was, of course, that people who vote according to who they think they'd like a beer with are likely to end up with a Karadzic . . . or a Bush, who, to judge by body-count alone, is of course far worse than Karadzic.
