I expressed all this to Michelle recently, who asked me if I would be having this reaction if he were a Republican.
With all do respect, Obamarama wouldn't have occurred if he wasn't a Democrat. Just look at the abuse Michael Steele experienced for going against the grain (of his blackness). The whole notion reminds me of the scene in Chasing Amy relative to the existence of a male-friendly lesbian, a man-hating dyke, Santa Claus, and the Easter bunny; in other words, a counterpoint has little validity if the hypothetical character in question is make-believe.
Although, this does remind me, in a sense, of Colin-mania.
Don't know if you guys have been following what the nut has been up to as of late, but all he needs to do is come out with a book detailing his genocidal plans, and we'll nearly be there... Nice to know that David Duke may consider denouncing his US citizenship...

I was just thinking about Colin Powell with regard to this topic. Because I was pretty excited about him back in the day. He seemed very un-politician-like (which is, I think, what draws people to Obama as well), but once he got into office, he got sucked into the game, and really had no choice but to play it. Now he's pretty much infamous for that sales pitch he gave the country.
I think that would happen to Obama, too. When Mr. Smith goes to Washington in real life, he doesn't change Washington, Washington changes him.
