Democratizing the Astros managerial search: The results

For those of you just joining this harebrained scheme of mine, let me catch up.  First I reasoned the following about our managerial search and the discussion around it:

With ten candidates being interviewed in the ensuing weeks, there have been various...[w]riters touting a certain manager for certain qualities...My thought is why do it that way? Instead of identifying what positive qualities a candidate possesses and then making a case for why that combination of qualities is in fact that best, why not just figure out which qualities are the most important?  Once we know what are the qualities that are most prized, coudn't we then just determine who best fits the mold?

To figure this out, on Monday and Tuesday votes were tallied through a convenient Google Docs form ranking everyone's five most important qualities in our next manager.  As refresher, a number one ranking was worth five points, four points for a second ranking, etc., etc., on down to one point if a quality was ranked fifth.  Just based on how I structured the point system, as the results came in I couldn't really figure out where the chips would fall.
