A few notes...
I think that it may not be "personality" exactly that is a problem for many law students without jobs -- it's JUDGMENT. People write truly terrible cover letters. They say things they shouldn't to firm, and don't say some of the things they should. They don't understand how their tone comes across in e-mails, and have Facebook profiles of them in their Halloween costumes dressed as slutty nurse. It's not chance that I've gotten an offer at every single callback I've gone on. (I've gotten the offers within at least 3-4 business days of the interview. I know that's not true for everyone, but if you were their first choice you'd probably know by now.) And included in that judgment is thinking you're hot *&^% out of the T4.
Also, the $63k is dubious for the reasons listed by other posters (reporting problem, calculating). But find a student loan calculator online. Even $63,000 is terrible unless you're going to school for free or cheap. To make the payments to pay my loans back within ten years without "some financial hardship" (according to the calculators), I'll need to make at least $130,000 starting. That won't be a problem for me, but it's something you should look in to before talking up your school's inflated $63k starting salaries.
And rah, rah. We all go to law school. To some degree we all may be in the "top" segments of the US population, somewhat loosely defined given the low admissions standards at lots of schools. But that doesn't mean you're in the top of the field, or that the firms would *want* everyone, even if the market wasn't tight. Not everyone is successful, and not everyone in law school has the tools to be successful. These people are disproportionately present in the fourth tier. You can't positive-think yourself into a high paying legal job. [As a sidebar to my "bad judgment" earlier in this post, overconfidence is also a problem.]
And here's a newsflash. We all have BAs and a foreign language. You can maybe stand out in another field with that, but not law.
This is what you need: legal experience plus enough money to survive the summer. This is what they're offering: legal experience plus enough money to survive the summer. There are more people who need legal experience this summer than there are jobs offering legal experience. That's the market.
So while you're right that the market isn't that tight and not all gloom and doom, that's true primarily if you have something that's sought after -- like if you're at a T14 or the top of your class. But you're not at a T14, and you're not choosing between 10 midlaw/biglaw offers. You don't offer much that's unique or in high demand, so you're debating a paralegal job at $10 an hour. And I think you should take it.
