7758 [lbo-talk] Brooks on Fast Eddie Obama -- rank: 1000
New York TImes - June 20, 2008 The Two Obamas By DAVID BROOKS God, Republicans are saps. They think that they're running against some academic liberal who wouldn't wear flag pins on his lapel, whose wife isn't proud of America and who went to some liberationist church where the pastor damned his own country. They think they're running against some naïve university-town dreamer, the second coming of Adlai Stevenson. But as recent weeks have made clear, Barack Obama is the most split- persona ...

Yeah, but as a second-order phenomenon. Gary Younge didn't like my insistence on delusion leading to disappointment. Who am I, cynical white aging intellectual, to question the perceptions of the aroused young and black masses? Doug

7761 [lbo-talk] black primary turnout -- rank: 1000
At last Thursday's Obama panel at the Brecht Forum, Gary Younge took my wet-blanketism to task for devaluing the enthusiasm of Obama's supporters. He cited a marked increase in black turnout as evidence. Apparently that's not exactly right: <http://abcnews.go.com/PollingUnit/Politics/story?id=5202366&page=1> "Turnout was up across the board, and blacks, like other Democrats, increased their participation. But blacks did not vote in disproportionately greater numbers: They acc ...

7762 [lbo-talk] race & the U.S. election -- rank: 1000
Obama's Candidacy Underscores Crosscurrents of Race and Politics Racial attitudes among white Americans show little if any net effect on Barack Obama's candidacy for president, an ABC News analysis finds, because negative views toward Obama among the least racially sensitive whites largely are balanced by pro-Obama sentiment among those with the highest racial sensitivities. Three in 10 whites express less racially sensitive views, such as having some feelings of prejudice or believing that ...
