Okay, seriously, what is it about Mitt Romney’s hair?

This article caught my attention because it seemed rather silly that an entire article was written on Mitt Romney's hair. It's one thing that people care so much about celebrities' styles, but worrying about the hairdos of politicians seemed to be taking things too far. However, this article was well-written and I think the author had an interesting point. She won me over by making fun of the obsession with hair. Obviously, she agrees with my opinion that hair shouldn't really matter. That said, I was much more open to what she had to say. Her appeal to pathos, pointing out the humor in people's obsession with Romney's hair, was very effective. She also had an appeal to logos. She quoted people who described Romney's hair and people who described his personality, pointing out surprising similarities. Despite what I originally thought when I first clicked on the link to this article, I found myself believing that Romney's hair might actually reflect who he is as a person. I think the article was written very well, because I was not very open to the author's argument, and yet her effective strategies won me over in the end.
