All of Romney's Money Can't Buy Him Some Charisma

I guess it really goes without saying but Mitt Romney is NOT Cool Like That. Obama definitely is. Even most Republicans cannot and would not pretend to dispute this fact.

It's like going back in time via some sort of Mad Men-esque Time Warp with a smackdown between Ward Cleaver and Sidney Poitier, and we know who would win that fight hands down! The way Romney sounds so stiff and uptight, maybe it's more like Howard Sprague versus The Fonz. Too bad Ann can't knit him a magical charisma necktie.

Thanks to Political Carnival for the video links.



LOL - this one is priceless!!! :) Obama with cheering students, Romney with snoring students. I love Romney's speech about office supplies - he's like every boring office manager you ever met - and his remarks about Obama sound like Greek-Column-Envy.

Mad Mash-Up from Hardball

The Obama - Mad Men Mashup from the Chris Matthews show on MSNBC. Wow - so creative! And also indicative of the role played by propaganda, spin and branding in modern elections. We have the imagery of the campaign signs and the commodities, with gasoline and medicine used as talking points, not to mention the fact that Romney (if not Santorum) could walk right into an episode of Mad Men.  But thank God this is 2012 and not 1964 ~ Obama wouldn't have been President back then.

And I think he will still be Chairman of the Board come next January!
