Begala's miscalculation.
When Begala dismissed a coalition of black people and the intelligentsia, he either deliberately or mistakenly left out a group that was the linchpin of Brazile's argument: The young.
To whit, the young energized new voters, who by dint of being new are unfactored by the 'machine' and who span the entire spectrum of identifiable voting groups are a demographic that will be the fulcrum upon which this election will pivot.
That being said, Begala was either just plain wrong or deliberately trying to obfuscate. So he's either stupid or an asshole.
