I think it takes a very "special" kind of personality to be a Mormon apologist.
They have to be "Miss the forest for the trees" type people.
They have to be the type of people that can never be wrong - more worried about winning the argument than finding the true answer.
I find Jeff Lindsay
http://www.jefflindsay.com/ to be a great example. The guy is amazing at arguing that he is in a desert. He goes down amazingly detailed red herring rabbit holes. The guy is adept at arguing - you say this a tree, but here's pages and pages of arguments that it might really be a cactus...
Also these shed light on apologists:
