The haunting of the Democrats
The party is caught in an excruciating Catch-22. Whether it chooses the establishment figure or the liberal reformer, history offers many paths to defeat.
By Andrew O'Hehir [2008-04-21]

  • Obama is no McGovern

    nor Mondale. I hate to say this, but he does remind me of Clinton the man from Hope, the same hope his wife so derides, now that she is establishment.

    Obama is not only a great orator and motivational speaker, but he is also pragmatic and quick to make opportunities out of his mistakes. I am happy to see him take Hillary on and respond to her dirty attack ad, fast and furious.

    While Mondale's and McGovern's were running campaigns, Obama is finding himself in front of a movement. The groundswell of support that he has garnered for himself is unprecedented in the history of the United States.

    Let's hope that the good people of PA will end Hillary's destructive path to win an unwinnable and fair nomination.
