"He could sell a refrigerator to an Eskimo."

Are there black Eskimos?

The thing about this guy is that he's such a smooth operator, his tripe will penetrate historic dividing lines. Watch him quickly ascend as the new articulate spokesman of the Leftists.

As the old blow-hards like Kennedy, Gore and Kerry fall to the wayside, Obama will saunter in and make their insanity palatable to a wider cross-section of America.

He's their Pied Piper. And, he's going to make a lot of trouble for our future.

My less pessimistic view is that many Democrats will very soon begin to move to the right. You can see this change already if you listen to some of Democratic strategists, for example on cable TV.

THe bottom line is that the Democratic Party ran out of ideas a long time ago and in order to win elections they will need to start appealing to normal people again, that is, those folks who represent the sane middle class in this country.

I think the looney left will increasingly become marginalized in the electoral process to the point of becoming a fringe third party.

Kennedy, Kerry, Klinton, and their ilk will no longer be relevant in this new order.
