The Odd Couple
A Posts entry from Monday, June 9, 2008This is lazy journalism. After months of hearing the same comparison used for Romney and Mccain, Clinton and Obama, News Hampshire and Iowa, and anybody with McCain, do we really need it for Obama and McCain?
I swear, if I get a LexisNexis account…
The movie came out in 1968, so anyone under 40 is going to miss the main reference, although they’ll probably get it from cultural context. It gets used when two people are put together who are (surprise) different in some way. It can apply to any situation involving two people who are not the same person. Lazy.

I’ve never seen the movie, just the TV show. And the TV show was always kind of homoerotic.
