So Much Found In A Word Count

From Frank Rich’s One Historic Night, Two Americas: “All presidential candidates, Mr. Obama certainly included, are egomaniacs. But Washington’s faith in hierarchical status adds a thick layer of pomposity to politicians who linger there too long. Mrs. Clinton referred to herself by the first-person pronoun 64 times in her speech [last Tuesday], and Mr. McCain did so 60 times in his. Mr. Obama settled for 30.”
