Politics usually are about deception though. It's about getting people to follow you in any way possible regardless of how you do it. Successfully winning people to your side is at the heart of politics. Sauron and Saruman both did that. They successfully convinced many to follow them, giving them the upper hand against those who weren't as skillful at swaying the crowd.
