Perhaps most striking is the case of Shelby Steele, the archconservative scholar who shares Mr. Obama’s mixed-race heritage. Though he has just written an entire book, “A Bound Man,” to argue (unpersuasively, in my view) that Mr. Obama “can’t win,” he can’t stop himself from admiring the guy throughout. Peggy Noonan wasn’t being tongue-in-cheek when she wondered in The Wall Street Journal last month whether Mr. Obama “understands the kind of quiet cheering he is beginning to garner from some Republicans.” In her view “they see him as a Democrat who could cure the Bush-Clinton-Bush-Clinton sickness.”

I thought Krugman didn't like Obama???

Obama's momentum is gaining......just at the right time. If people in this country really want change, then he's the way to go whether you believe in everything he says or not. What better way to initiate the new century with a president who is both black and white.

As for the GOP, Krugman is being naive. Rove and GOP are not so stupid to think that Obama doesn't have a chance. They just haven't figured out how to go after him while hoping upon hope that Hillary gets the nod.
