[Vision2020] "The Likability Factor" (Calvin Trillin, Deadline Poet)

[Tom Hansen]

“The polls agree: President Barack Obama is likable. The
question is whether he’s likable enough to get re-elected.”

"The Likability Factor" by Calvin Trillin, Deadline Poet
 
"It’s said, as a rule, the most likable guy
Is likely the guy who’ll pull through.
And, given the candidates now set to try,
The Democrats hope that is true. 
 
Though voters, polls show, think Obama is cool
And Romney is colder than ice,
More likable’s not an infallible tool.
Remember: Dick Nixon won twice."
