The rubes and the elites
By calling small-town Americans "bitter," Obama has deepened a long-standing rift in the Democratic base. The party's success in November depends on healing it.
By Michael Lind [2008-04-15]

  • Obamaworld

    So to residents of the Obama compound it's a sign of respect to tell entire populations of small towns that they're too weak minded and stupid not to be blinded by a bad economy? They cannot maintain their rationality when times get tough, so they "cling to" religion and guns and racism?

    America isn't like the Obama compound.
