As in "So if Obama draws a big crowd that must mean that you want a President who's only good at entertaining".

Plenty.
e.g. "Anybody who disagrees with someone against Obama must also think that anti-Obama person is a racist."
When he draws a crowd of rock fans are we to believe they came to "entertained" by him? Are we to assume they didn't show up for the band?
Pop Concert for Obama Fans ++
6:33 p.m.: The tens of thousands of Obama fans are being entertained as they await the senator. The reggae musician Patrice kicked things off, followed by the rock band Reamonn.

Illustration via Pitchfork Media | NewsBusters.orgFrom CNN to the New York Times, the media hyped Barack Obama's Portland, Oregon rally on Sunday, some comparing him to a rock star.
Unmentioned in national reporting was the fact that Obama was preceded by a rare, 45-minute free concert by actual rock stars The Decemberists. The Portland-based band has drawn rave reviews from Rolling Stone magazine, which gave their 2005 album Picaresque four and a half stars (out of five), and another four and a half stars for 2007's The Crane Wife.
How many of the people showed up to hear Obama, and how many to hear the band

Nobody actually voted for Obama, either. They all thought they were buying Coldplay tickets.
