...President, Great Film I'm not sure Richard Corliss and I watched the same movie [Nov. 3]. Oliver Stone most certainly did have a point of view in filming W., his slice-of-life depiction of George W. Bush. The genius of Stone is that he can duplicate the emotions in the movie theater that we all feel in real life: confounded disbelief that a person like Dubya could ever become the President of the United States. Bush is perhaps the worst President we have ever had or, hopefully, will ever have. The first election, in 2000, was engineered, jockeyed...
...Obama Effect The media make much ado about the so-called Bradley effect [Nov. 3]. And it doesn't take a genius to see that John McCain and Sarah Palin have counted on this racial motivation to help them overcome the consequences of their poorly run campaign.

This likability and perceived trustworthiness continue to grow over time. Across the board, Obama's ratings have steadily increased...
...self-contradictor. Recycle his bullshit into yours. 3) Avoiding eye contact with the TF after an impossible question’s been asked: Head down. Write. Write as much as you can in that notebook of yours and don’t look up. This screams “genius-flowing-no-interruptions-plz.” Practice your signature or write down the name of every person you were smarter than in high school. By the time someone else has answered the question, you’ll be feeling like a winner again. 4) Dealing with...
