Candidate Parade
This presidential campaign reminds me of “Easter Parade” in a perverse way.
“East Parade” was the hit 1948 movie starring the great Fred Astaire and Judy Garland. The plot is straight forward: Fred Astaire has a dancing partner who leaves the act to go solo. They also had a romantic relationship, so Fred is feeling doubly rejected. To get back at her, he boasts that he could pull any girl off of the chorus line and turn her into a star with his sheer star power.

I watched Mrs. Trump’s speech last night.
Very nice. A glamor girl was humanized. I believe but a small percentage of voters are swayed by a prospective First Lady, with the exception of Hillary Clinton (who certainly repelled many).
But in all, last night’s prime time speech by Melania Trump was a net gain … until this morning. It was all undone by…
