you are comfortable with regular people.

And it shows.

Plebes, rabble, and the unwashed... That's out kinda folks!

That was the one where the talk the next day was how orange Gore looked, and how Gore was too alpha, had walked into Bush's space while Bush was still answering a question. Bush noticed, looked at him, humurously nodded his head, audience laughed. Bush's personality won the day. The substance didn't matter so much. That's how I remember it.

Gore took on the look of a robot or zombie and walked over into W's space. W looked up startled, made a humorous head tilt (like "whu? ya want something?&quot and continued on. Frankly I was embarrassed for Gore. It was like he tried to use a high school level debating tactic, trying to throw W off by physical intimidation. To me, he lost that debate in that moment. It's the *only* thing I remember about their debates.

i think they would do better. even if you disagree with every single thing they said they might come off better.

in the case of most of these republicans McCain had turned into the grumpy old guy and Romney is the worst in terms of relating to people.

It seems to me that the inherent advantage is that the Democrat seems to be able to connect with the audience. I don't know if it's intuitive or experience or what, but the
the Democrat just relates better.
