Tiger Woods And Barack Obama

Barack Obama has been compared to Tiger Woods so many times (Google finds 290,000 pages where they are both mentioned, although no doubt a large fraction are "And in other news" references rather than direct comparisons) that many people no doubt assume, unconsciously, that Obama possesses the same traits as Woods.

On the subject of voter ignorance, one of the great revelations to me has been the research tending to show that the voters most likely to keep an open mind about candidates are also the most ignorant.

Hardly anyone seeks out knowledge for the (boring) purpose of making an informed voting decision.

Hmm...how fine is that line between "favor" and "threat" at this point?
