This is a big part of why this President is going to win re-election. He is likeable, an honorable and decent man. If John Kerry, Bill Clinton, Ted Kennedy, Gary Conduit, etc., hug a 15 year-old-girl there is always this underlying, creepy sexual deviance feeling about it. Of course Bill Clinton won two terms in spite of this but I think people had enough of it and don't want anymore from the likes of a ghoulish creep like Kerry.

This photo is truly touching - but it is also horrifying that an ordinary, plain-spoken man is so unusual in American politics that he stands out as a heroic figure, even in an ordinary moment of showing true compassion, and that fabricated, phony creatures such as Clinton and Kerry have become the norm.

Clinton won two terms because there was a third party in each election siphoning off votes from Bush and Dole.

Dole also was an incredibly inept campaigner.
