They left out the part about Obama

For a finale he stood on his computer table with the grand “Whoa-oh-oh-oh” of Journey’s “Faithfully” issuing from the PC (sometimes interspersed with “Pop Bottles” by Birdman and Lil Wayne). It was a pop cliché: the big arena-rock finale, balloons dropped from the ceiling. Sure, it was an easy effect. But there’s no arguing with a good time.
