Obama’s good friend Deval Patrick, whose words of hope and change he supposedly borrowed, is having a tough time delivering on those promises of hope and change as governor of Massachusetts.  See, skillful political strategists like Karl Rove and David Axelrod can often get a candidate elected, but then there’s that “The Candidate” moment when they actually have to start thinking about GOVERNING.

“Just ignore them,” he said. “Pretend they’re not there.”

You have to run an open, transparent campaign to be considered a closer.

Barack Obama, who takes poor notes, has meetings with people he’s claimed never to have seen before, has campaign staff contact consulates about “campaign bluster” but reassures that none of his words against NAFTA are real, and who has lost swatchs of archives from his days in the Illinois Senate, is no closer.

For those and many more reasons.

Two states not being counted, and Cook Co. are the only thing keeping him ahead in the vote count.

Labor unions would provide the kind of systemic support necessary to see these items are channeled productively. Oh, the new democracy Bush supports in Iraq outlawed unions? Who could have imagined?
