Re: "So how did Tom Selleck, definitely not an Eisenhower lookalike..."
Tom looks more the part than Robert Duvall in "Ike: The War Years - TV (1978)." Most people forget that Ike was tall like Selleck.
IMHO I think he will do a fine job tonight.

See ya'll there!
And most people forget he was born in Texas.
Tom Selleck did a great job portraying "Ike"! What a positive contrast "Ike" is to that Democrat "traitor" John Kerry!
