It’s the Class Issue, Stupid

Feeling bitter?
Clinging to your guns this morning?
Prayed yet today?
Yeah, it’s tough all over, especially for Obama right now. John B. Judis sees
the same window I do. It’s possible. Here’s an excerpt, but read
the whole article:
Some liberal commentators have downplayed the effect of Barack Obama’s fundraising
speech at a San Francisco fundraiser last week. But that’s wishful thinking.
Along with the revelations about Obama’s pastor Jeremiah Wright, his remarks
in San Francisco will haunt him not only in the upcoming primaries in Pennsylvania,
Indiana, Kentucky, and West Virginia, but also in the general election against
John McCain, assuming he gets the Democratic nomination. … ..… .. There is even a slight chance that Obama’s words in San Francisco
could cost him the nomination. Obama is almost certain to have more elected
delegates in June than Hillary Clinton, but if he loses Pennsylvania by 15
percentage points (which is not out of the question), that could start a media
firestorm around his candidacy that could contribute to other primary defeats
and to superdelegate support for Clinton. It’s not likely to happen, but after
Obama spoke his mind, and, perhaps, lost small-town voters’ hearts, in San
Francisco, it has suddenly become conceivable.
Dobbs did the rest on his show yesterday. Class, identity, working class Americans, Obama is ignoring the fundamental problem. He insulted a huge segment of this country, while also calling us racist…. again.
