3. 'Likability'
The vote for President for most Americans is a gut vote, it is less about issues than about character and comfort.

Obama is just plain more likable.

He won tonight based on that criteria ... and he is the only one who could beat the rather likable McCain on that score

5. I had so hoped he would do that
I said earlier I would want him to come out and be a complete gentleman. He was terrific.
