There should be a rule that no male politician is allowed to wear makeup. Does anyone remember the orange glow Gore had for one of the 2000 Presidential debates? Embarrasing. Gov. Romney's choice of John Boehner's makeup guy was, in retrospect, a poor choice.
He had full control for two years, with a compliant House and Senate. If his stances on immigration reform were that important, it would have been passed. The same with his evolved position on gay marriage. But it can't be that our noble President Obama would ever be playing politics, would it?
