Couples Therapy

Some cable outlets merely alluded to the fact that Barack Obama and Michelle stayed behind in the debate hall in Tennessee for a considerable amount of time after the 2nd Presidential debate had ended.

It's a minor happening, but it speaks volumes.

Wonkette has a good timeline of what the objective C-SPAN cameras revealed once the cable cameras shut off. Gramps McCain and Cindy bolted, and fast (Country First!), while Barack and Michelle took the ultra-elite tack and stayed behind, chatting, taking pictures, and generally engaging with the, um, actual voters that were there.

Makes me wonder: who really wants this thing more?

Or better yet: who actually enjoys the campaign?

I tell you, my friends... that one might be a celebrity, but he's got a common touch and confident political sensibility that McCain cannot match.
