misread Eljem's intent. He is not pro-Obama, as it turns out. As a fellow moderate (Dem), I agree wholeheartedly w. everything you have written here, most especially "We do not believe in fairy tales."

Don't know if you caught Chris Matthews' network TV show this morning but amazingly, ALL his guests (**) swallowed and followed that bogus line about "America is already in a postracial age." I don't know how city or town those people live in, but wherever it is, they are living in a BUBBLE. (**) even Tom Rather, who knows better but I think just went along with that unrealistic overly PC cant.)
