According to Maureen Dowd Barrack Obama is the Tiger Woods of politics.

When the Tiger Woods of politics goes to a civil rights commemoration in Selma, Ala., this weekend....

Tiger Woods is the second greatest player to have ever played the game of golf!

I find it rather difficult to see how Barrack Obama's political achievements even fit into the same universe of Tiger Woods.

Is this MSM wishful thinking?

from the context of the article I think she means he's tall, half black and has star quality.

Besides, you can do better than a 4 month old link I'd have thought Earl.

Thaiger's one helluva golf player, but I fail to see how a potential Presidential incumbent would be flattered by being compared to a well paid sportsman.

Tiger Woods- the Barack Obama of Golf?

Tiger Woods is an accomplished superstar of golf.
Barrack Obama is fluff and hot air with little to distinguish himself from the run of the mill politician.

Maureen Dowd is a dried-up menopausal old hag who thinks she's got some 'influence' - what a joke...
