In other words, wishful thinking. People in Russia like Vladimir Zhirinovsky for the same reason, even though most of the population (that I've spoken to about it) pegs him a clown. Just listen to this (not his most passionate speech, but oh dear, is it biased; LDPR is the Liberal-Democratic Party of Russia) - or read this from BrainyQuotes. People seem to think that Zhirik is only on the political stage to create an illusion of democracy, of that change is possible; personally, I don't see how he'd be running the country: he seems to have no idea how to do so!
