Obama is Sinatra, McLame is Lawrence Welk...
It's all about style, grace and appeal. I worry not about Obama in this evening's debate. I do worry about his safety but I have faith in his security people. Obama, like Sinatra, knows how to put his views across in a stylish and smooth manner. A melody of thoughts and ideas to inspire us all. No yelling required, you would strain to listen if he dropped his voice. McLame, like Welk, appeals to a very narrow group of listeners, not necessarily all old, but certainly in the senior generation. Now that he's promised to interfere with their Medicare, etc., I think a one, a two, you're outta here will be his swan song.
