and hillary and the kennedy family have been enablers but in this election the TK embrace may have picked up some votes as scott points out but hurt in a more subtle way by putting lothario and the second coming of jesus up on the same stage.
I know obama has caught up in the pop vote but perhaps in the long run he would have been better served if:
1. oprah in SC hadnt happened, garnering a larger share of the black vote while losing whites and hispanics
2. TK didnt happen if indeed it hurts him with women.

I think obama needs to move to the right and shore up FP, Iraq and Economic growth with someone like Webb and a big name economist who is not soft on growth. Country and markets in bad shape. Goolsby is too lightweight to be the spokesman. He needs his version of Bob Rubin.
