“Hey, the dudes left-handed” the research teams deputy field assistant for handedness called out.
And there was Mr. Obama, scrawling smudged notes with his wrong hand, showing all of America or at least the 3 percent glued to CNN at that moment his gauche, sinister love of the left. He was carefully writing down his opponents words, presumably to appropriate them for a very eloquent inaugural address down the road.
The big deal here is not just Mr. Obama’s orientation. Republican front-runner John McCain comes from the same, left-leaning 10 percent to 15 percent of the population. Its becoming clearer by the day — unless every right-hander in Texas, Ohio and Pennsylvania votes for Mrs. Clinton — that the next president will be left-handed.
The country has not been faced with such predetermination of presidential handedness since the three-way race of 1992, when George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton and H. Ross Perot all favored the same side used by Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci to create great art.
Other than the first Mr. Bush and Mr. Clinton, the left-handed presidents everyone seems to agree on were James Garfield, Harry Truman and Gerald Ford.
Wow, McCain, Obama, Bill Clinton, Al Gore, & Bush Sr. are all lefties?
