Pictures make a difference


I offer the picture on the far right (whoever would have put her there!) from the Politico site to show that there is at least one flattering photograph of Hillary Clinton circulating out there somewhere. Wouldn't you rather vote for this candidate than for the one we keep seeing on the evening news?

....And I offer on the left this version of the Somali-outfit pictures (I got it off The Scotsman website) to show that a picture of Barack Obama can be unflattering. It's not the clothes he's wearing, by the way, that make him look foolish here. It's the goofy grin on his face. At least when Obama gets visually skewered he still seems likable, if not particularly authoritative.

By the way, and this is no great insight, Clinton is most likable when she is least authoritative.

Hmm. Didnt realize what a difference a photo makes. Im one of those people who just takes it all in and forgets to analyze...Thanks for calling it to my attention.
