I'm deliberately stepping on the line of political correctness to make a point.
This is a lighter shade of uncool.
Please note my metaphor is COMPLETELY UNRELATED to skin color. It's about shades of uncoolness. Given that when I said Charlie Crist was uncool, there was no comparison to George Hamilton, this might seem deliberately racist in that light - but only to the thin-skinned. However, the metaphor is only about relative uncoolness.
In this case - slightly less liberal, is still liberal. Not cool.
