"Worse, in tandem with her husband, she has imperiled her prospects in the general election by estranging black and young Democratic voters -- a remarkable accomplishment, considering that the Democrats' historic rifts usually reflect major policy differences, of which this year's contest has none."
Ouch. It's true, and one of the reasons I prefer Obama to Hillary, but still, harsh.
Yeah, but, you know, I'm going to start believing this Obama-has-transformative-power stuff when I really start feeling like that projection is based on anything other than him being awfully charismatic. My feeling is that this may sum up what you've been trying to say well, but that that message is not going to be convincing to people who aren't already fairly convinced about Obama. It's a message you already have to have kind of bought into Obama in order to buy, I think.
