Seems like a pretty reasonable flow for the comment to me, but I'm not hyper sensitive and whining about "Mean ol' John" like the Obama campaign has made one of their goals of the debate, so maybe I'm missing something.
If Obama had said it, I would have said it was condescending. There's no reason not to use someone's name unless you're trying to make a point or a jab.
