McCain can discuss pop culture as fluidly and astutely as any politician. (He also benefits from terrific genes: note his lively 96-year-old mother Roberta.) Obama, for his part, has projected gravitas and judgment--and has rallied a flood of young voters who could offset those still wary of the new whippersnapper...
