I think I'd add another layer to this: Charisma wins undecided voters, and undecided voters win elections. ~60% of the country (~30% GOP, ~30% Dem) vote along party lines. It's the ~30% in the middle that decide elections, and I'd say they go with the more charismatic candidate. I think we'll get a good test in this election. I'd say Hillary is above average when compared to Presidential candidates, but Donald Trump has basically built his campaign on his personality. It's going to be a landmark issues vs. personality election.
