Pool Shark!

Wow - did you see Obama shoot some stick yesterday, in Missouri, I think? Again, like his smooth baritone voice, shooting pool is a superficial attribute, but there is a fair amount of window-dressing associated with the Presidency. We remember it from JFK - we remember it's utter absence from Carter. Nixon eschewed cool in favor of imperial trappings - didn't work out so well for him.

Here's hoping for turnout in West Virginia to be suppressed by news stories of the race being essentially over - Hillary is going for maximum popular vote in her tilting-at-windmills quest.
