Apparently we’re supposed to take this seriously:

John McCain lost last night’s presidential debate at Belmont University because he became “locked in his own body.”
That’s the verdict of dance scholars at the University of Maryland and George Mason University, who analyzed the candidates’ movements during the debate using Laban Movement Analysis. …
For Mr. Obama, who “lives in the university of possibilities,” the space was too confining, too constricting. As a result, he “wandered around looking slightly uncomfortable before nailing his points.”
Mr. McCain, on the other hand, began well, “with his solidity and clarity present.” But as the debate wore on, he became “increasingly locked in his own body, entrenched in a small enclosed space,” his growing discomfort evident in his pacing, shifting, and side-stepping. The scholars conclude that Mr. McCain is “a man who carries his own prison with him” — someone who has not yet escaped the effects of his imprisonment decades ago.
