Mark Steyn suggeststhat it’s the dominant vernacular of the age. Go into almost any American grade-school and stroll the corridors: you’ll find the walls lined with Sharpie-bright supersized touchy-feely abstractions: “RESPECT,” “DREAM,” “TOGETHER,” “DIVERSITY.”

...why voters were so hot for this hope’n’change mush...
Obama's post-racial promise.
Shelby Steele's opinion:In running for the presidency -- and presenting himself to a majority white nation -- Obama knew intuitively that he was dealing with a stigmatized people. He knew whites were stigmatized as being prejudiced, and that they hated this situation and literally longed for ways to disprove the stigma.
***
Obama's post-racial idealism told whites the one thing they most wanted to hear: America had essentially contained the evil of racism to the point at which it was no longer a serious barrier to black advancement.
We voted.
Amanda Jones, the daughter of a slave says:the living link between the time when black men were owned as property and the time when a black man has been elected president of the United States.

Extermination of 25 million Americans?

The Media wants Obama.
From the Pew Research Center:Voters overwhelmingly believe that the media wants Barack Obama to win the presidential election. By a margin of 70%-9%, Americans say most journalists want to see Obama, not John McCain, win on Nov. 4. Another 8% say journalists don't favor either candidate, and 13% say they don't know which candidate most reporters support.

Cassandra Biden?
Rush Limbaugh:Now, if you're Obama, and you've just got through digesting the wonderfulness of the Powell endorsement, then you hear that your highly esteemed, really, really brilliant vice presidential nominee is out there guaranteeing a world crisis in six months, and guaranteeing that Obama's poll numbers are going to be in the sewer, and begging people for support when all this happens, what is your reaction? You probably say, "Could I get Sarah Palin on my ticket?"

This is going to be one hell of an election.
From The Anchoress:If you criticize Obama you’re a racist. If you look into his associations, you’re “being dangerous.” If Obama loses, we’re told by Democrat James Carville that Obama supporters “will riot” (the most racist thing I’ve yet heard in this election, btw) and of course, if you look into voter fraud and ACORN and its mad history of voter intimidation, fraud and suppression, well…that’s probably racist, too. Meanwhile he’s got Camp Obama going on, training folks for agitation on election day, and he’s telling his supporters to “get in their faces.”
What a leader. Seems like “the One” shouldn’t have to do all this manipulating and training, doesn’t it?Tags: Obama
Connecting with the investor class, a huge voting block.
Larry Kudlow:While the presidential candidates were debating in Nashville on Tuesday night the Asian stock markets were selling off by 10 percent. Earlier in the day the U.S. market plunged by 500 points. These were big-time drops, yet presidential debaters never talk about the stock market. Nashville was no exception.
Roughly $2 trillion in U.S. shareholder capital has been lost in the past 15 months. Stocks are down 20 percent over the last month alone. Those are nasty hits. Stock market people are very unhappy campers right now. And the bad-news financial statements for September are now either in the mail or on the kitchen table. But there were no references to investors either by McCain or Obama on Tuesday night. This is nuts.
