David Brooks thinks Obama will win because he is cool?

Quote:

David Brooks, a New York Times columnist who is quite taken with Obama, writes in today’s paper that while Americans think Obama is doing a bad job on the economy and that the country is off track, Obama stands a good chance of being re-elected because of his demeanor: an “ESPN” brand of post-modern machismo cool.

EARTH TO DAVID BROOKS: ESPN IS NOT COOL!!!! ESPN SUCKS!!!! I need to see the actual quote. If he actually thinks ESPN is cool, he is about 15 years behind the times.

Meanwhile, Dana Milbank dubs him the "first female president" who "brazenly flaunted his feminine mystique".

For some, Obama continues to be a blank slate on to which the project their hopes.
