In politics like most organizations the hierarchy is a pyramid with far more spots near the base than near the peak. Presumably a rising star is recognized when they've moved up from the base but not to the peak. The statistics alone suggest that most such people will never find the timing or opportunity to find a place in the upper ranks. So most rising stars will necessarily end up as duds if judged by how high they might have been expected to rise if everything worked to their advantage.
