Meet Obama’s female doppleganger, Baldilocks

The New Neo Posted on August 21, 2008 by neoAugust 23, 2008

What’s up with Obama’s head tilt?

The New Neo Posted on August 19, 2008 by neoAugust 23, 2008

I’ve noticed that in conversation and interviews, Obama seems to have a perpetual head tilt (mostly to the right), both when he listens and when he talks: It is so pronounced that it was present during virtually his entire Saddleback … Continue reading →

On the Saddleback interviews—whose simplistic world is it, anyway?

The New Neo Posted on August 18, 2008 by neoOctober 16, 2009

I watched about twenty-five minutes of the Saddleback interviews with Obama and McCain, and although I’m hardly an objective viewer, and it was only a “snippet” (to use one of Obama’s favorite words) of the whole, my perception is that … Continue reading →

Swiftboating Obama—and swiftboating the swiftboaters who swiftboat…

The New Neo Posted on August 13, 2008 by neoAugust 23, 2008

Is it self-confidence or is it arrogance?

The New Neo Posted on August 8, 2008 by neoAugust 23, 2008

Peggy Noonan writes in today’s WSJ: Two weeks ago a journalist, a moderate liberal, spoke to me of what he called Mr. Obama’s arrogance. I said I didn’t think it was arrogance but high self-regard. He said there’s no difference. … Continue reading →

The race card timeline and accusations of racism

The New Neo Posted on August 5, 2008 by neoJuly 22, 2010

Obama’s paper trail in Illinois

The New Neo Posted on August 3, 2008 by neoAugust 23, 2008

For many years Obama has carefully cultivated his history to assure that he remains a blank screen on which people can project whatever they want to see. For example, he is unique in being a Harvard Law Review President and … Continue reading →

You can’t make this stuff up

The New Neo Posted on August 2, 2008 by neoAugust 2, 2008

The New Neo Posted on July 31, 2008 by neoAugust 23, 2008

The Obama camp says the McCain campaign is wrong to accuse him of playing the race card in the following remarks Obama made while addressing a crowd in Missouri yesterday: Nobody thinks that Bush and McCain have a real answer … Continue reading →

On acting Presidential (or kingly)

The New Neo Posted on July 30, 2008 by neoAugust 23, 2008

In recent decades, as the Presidential races have become more like advertising campaigns and less like contests about the issues, there’s been a great deal of attention paid to “acting Presidential.” Some of it is reasonable, an attempt to size … Continue reading →
