This is the type of post that burns me up. Bowers writes:

The real problem is that of the three factors Clinton thinks delegates should take into account, electability concerns are the first two factors. How empty and soul-less are [sic] she expecting the party to be?

What angers me about this is Bowers is acting as if Barack Obama ran a sharp ideological campaign from the "Democratic Wing of the Democratic Party." On issues, Obama's campaign has been empty and soul-less. He has argued AGAINST Fighting Dems. He has argued that he can get her voters but she can not get his voters (presumably he means Republicans and Indies, an electability argument if you are paying attention Chris) He has argued that he has great appeal to Republicans, that he is a unifier, that he is "post-partisan."

How empty and soul-less does Obama expect the American People to be? In my view very empty. And I think he is right. He can get elected President as an empty vessel. The question is what will he be able to do as President? And the question I have for Chris Bowers is how stupid does he think we are?
