6. People have been saying that about Obama almost from the beginning.

A lot of it has to do with his flashy rallies. Obama supporters are quick to point out how "good-looking" he is and how well he dresses and how well he speaks. Others notice the adoration of his fans, and compare it to the phenomenon of shows like American Idol.

This is not a new observation. In fact, since it's been so successful for Obama, I expect to see political campaigns in the future resemble Obama's campaign. We have entered a new era.
