I think that the key to fighting Obama is to focus on his ideas for public education. Much of the work that he did in Chicago focused on using the public education system as a community organizing tool, essentially turning public education into a giant militant ethnic studies program under the direction of William Ayres. They pushed the idea that political awareness was more important than test scores.
I wish that we could get one person in the press to ask him about his ideas on public education. The public would finally see him for who he is.
Even if the tables are turned in 2010 it will take that long to undo the damage - if it can be undone.
