Thanks for posting that! I was talking about this very debate the other day.

Having seen a video of a good chunk of that debate I can vouch for the passage:
"Senator Kennedy, using no television makeup, rarely smiled during the hour and maintained an expression of gravity suitable for a candidate for the highest office in the land.

Mr. Nixon, wearing pancake makeup to cover his dark beard, smiled more frequently as he made his points and dabbed frequently at the perspiration that beaded out on his chin."

Several of my professors argued that this cosmetic mishap was a large factor in the election. I'm tempted to agree.
