I can once again vote for obama. As i said, i think this is a generational issue. On one side are all the idiots from the 50s and 60s on both sides of the divide. On the other is a younger generation that is beginning to look at things differently. It can be seen in something as mundate as cutting the gas tax over the summer which both mccain (50s) and hillary (60s) are both for. Obama would have none of it and I respect him for that. This is also a story of fathers and sons. Wright the father felt dissed by obama the son and went out of his way to humiliate him. In what was a very difficult moment for obama, he disassociated himself from the black hate machine much as he has disassociated himself from the hate machine on the right. InOde and rush are salivating at a dem melt down a la chicago. Sharpton is looking for an incident in NYC to propel violence in a city where all folks have learned to live with each other. Both want the same--a return to their hayday of civil strife and racial hatred. Obama will have none of that. The clintons dabble in it and McCain says the right things but shit happens anyway. So for the time being, i will move back to obama, hoping that his generational struggle wont lead him into policies that have failed before. Because MM make no mistake american liberalism in the form of the welfare state has failed and the new conservatism is now failing as just like its predecessor (liberalism) it fails to understand the changing landscape.
