MIdwest Voices: It’s not about Obama’s race, it’s about policies By ROSS BALANO
Saturday, Sep 27, 2008 Ross Balano for Midwest Voices. Where’s the change?
For all the talk of change coming from the Democratic side, what few specifics I hear sound strikingly the same as what we have come to expect from Democrats.
Let’s see: raise taxes, more and bigger government programs, no drilling in ANWR, etc. … What’s new about that? That’s same, not change.
Barack Obama thinks these are the things the American people want. If that’s true, then why isn’t Obama running away with this election?
Some would tell you it’s because too many of us are stupid and bitter people who cling to our guns and God. Others, including Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius, suggest that race has something to do with it.
So the race card has been played again this election; nothing new about that either. Democrats do it every election cycle. But I thought Obama was supposed to transcend race.

The polls show him ahead perhaps because more minorities are added in, as the Washington Post admitted doing in its poll. Kind of evens things up that way.
But wait, I thought polls were to see who was winning, not to rig the numbers to level the playing field.
It’s also about behavior. Obama as president is a joke.
Yeah, he’s “ahead” just like Kerry was in ‘04.
That’s not even clear when you consider all the polls, but Gergen was absolutely sure last night Obama was so. Which, of course, led him to believe that Obama won the debate since McCain didn’t do anything to pull ahead.
Yeah.
How’d that muddle headed twerp end up in 3 GOP administrations?
What we are seeing is the national version of the “Bradley effect”.
