This is a colorful, quaint and countrified saying. A polecat is a skunk. Skunks have black fur with a white stripe. If you could flatter a skunk long enough for him to loose his stripe, that would mean that you are confident enough and charmingly eloquent enough to win over even someone so dangerous, ugly or cynical that nobody else is brave enough or stupid enough to engage in conversation.
