His policies, his humor, his cheery attitude that it was "morning again in America" and his ability to a policy and run with just inspired people.

He was blunt abou this faith guiding him, his disdain for aborition, his belief that the USSR must fall, and that America would win. 

Thats why he won 49 out of 50 states in 1984.  No matter what you have to say about anyone, that sort of landslide is... telling.
Telling of what? That the masses are easily manipulated?
