Understanding this quote
The speaker presents himself as physically unremarkable—“short” and “fairly plain”—but says he is still managing to persuade people. “Bluffing his case” suggests he is putting forward an argument with more confidence than certainty, while “getting away with it” means this has not been exposed or stopped.
