Political/Reptile Skin

Pick your politician after awhile it always appears that they have reptile skin. For a politician skin changes like the weather taking one stance when it gets too hot and putting on another when their fortune is freezing. A “good politician” feels the air quicker than they can speak and modifies their tone/philosophy based on it.  For in the end they are an animal outside the realm of humanity just looking to survive through another political season whatever it takes.
