    I actually watched and listened to all 5 minutes of that!  Wouldn't have been possible a couple of weeks ago.

    not fair -  you may not agree with her insights and analyses, but she always gives very pointed and informed comments, including background information and historical reference. She is well versed on the subjects she speaks of.

    But for the record, his tie is crooked.

    so I'm choosing to decide that it humanizes him.  The less he looks like his shirts are custom-made, the better.

    Obama his collar size was too big.  This was during the primary debates.  Did he listen?  Apparently not.

    color her ability in that respect. Which is too bad. But that is just my opinion, others may differ.

    the quality of his neckties has greatly improved since the beginning of the primaries. I do wish politicians would stop with the ubiquitous blue tie, though.

    It usually takes me a week or so before I find that I can't bear to look at or listen to a new commander-in-chief. It only took two days in the case of Obama.

    Glad to see that you were just being rhetorical/hyperbolic. Not sure what you are gaining but, at least your objective is now cleared up.

    100+ comments re: "Who Is The Wackier Kennedy Worshipper? O'Donnell Or Dowd?" and @15 for this...and none (including this one) re: the substance of his talk. Considering the seriousness of what's going on in our dearoldusa, we still haven't shaken off our love of/preoccupation with the sensational, the over-cooked, the gasping for breath story of the hr/day/wk/mo, etc. What odd creatures we are. I love us anyway, but (just observin') whoa, Nellie...
