State of the Union






DEMONCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION | AUGUST 25 -- 28, 2008 | DENVER

Consider this cross section of the United States right now: Thursday August 14, 2008; Jim Geraghty

"We may be on the verge of winning in Iraq, but Afghanistan is getting tougher. Pakistan is still an unstable cauldron of extremism where America has limited options. Iran is seeking nukes and the Israelis have an itchy trigger finger.

The Russian bear is in the woods again, stomping on Georgia. China is rising and showcasing authoritarian capitalism as an alternative to Western-style democracy. If the FBI is right, one guy with no state or group backing managed to terrorize Americans in fall 2001 by slipping poisons in envelopes.

Gas prices are dropping, but Americans won't quickly forget $4 a gallon prices, nor the recognition that faraway pipelines and Nigerian political stability can suddenly affect them at the pump.

Fannie Mae and Freddy Mac ran aground, the housing bubble burst, the border's not secure..."

Maybe 1992, and perhaps 2000 were good cycles to run "young/fresh face" against "trusted and tested." But this isn't 1992 or 2000.

According to HERE: It's a Tough Cycle to Run Young/Fresh Face' Against 'Trusted and Tested.' (Thursday August 14, 2008; Jim Geraghty, the campaign spot)

Steven Stark, cogitating over at RealClearPolitics has said:

"History shows that the Democrats are up against an experienced, steady Republican candidate [McCain] who is unlikely to make major mistakes. And their nominee, after a brilliant start in January and February to launch his candidacy and cement his base, hasn't had a terrific six months. Obama continues to show few signs of extending his support to the demographics that are likely to decide the election — principally the working-class voters concentrated in industrial states such as Ohio, Michigan, and Pennsylvania." (Stark, S; August 14, 2008)

It is a flummoxed, potentially unsteady Democratic Party again; or is it?

What happens if the love affair WITH Barack Obama is over by DNC08 closing gavel?

Don't you just hate to wait and see -- let's fast forward to November?
