Obama tacks center a little too soon
I won't link to the original source, but K-Lo at The Corner does.
Take note friends - here is the cesspool of the wacko Left, taking a mild - and generally indisputable - remark by their "patron saint", twisting it in the fires of their lair under Orodruin, and turning around to beat him with it. With friends like this, Obama won't need a Republican opponent in November to lose.
(And take note - these are the people who dare not even speak about She Who Shall Not Be Named - they're suggesting defection to Edwards.)
What's really interesting is that here is a black man praising the optimism of Ronald Reagan, and NOT pointing out the age-old rant about The Southern Strategy. (Something, I should note, that was concocted by Nixon, not Reagan.) One has to wonder how many of the commenters agreeing with Hamsher are also white liberals, and how many of them are clueless of the fact that they are, yet again, presuming to push a seemingly capable black leader out of the picture because he's too stupid to see the brilliance of their superior wisdom.
