A really interesting piece of commentary about the relationship between politics and charisma. The author is a long-time Reagan Republican who's considering a vote for Obama because, to him, he represents the kind of idealism, commitment, and values he saw embodied in Reagan in 1980, whereas McCain, at least in his current political incarnation, represents cynicism, manipulation, and "politics-as-usual."
