Infatuation

Did Obama win because of changing demographics, or just because he's Barack Obama?
May mean bad news for Democrats - if Republicans settle down and focus.
It is in the nature of personality cults to fail at most things beyond generating and disseminating propaganda. This inability is the result of two things. First, the personality’s popularity is not results-driven. Since adoration hasn’t been earned by achievement but by the advent of charisma, why kill yourself trying to get results. Second, few people are willing to candidly critique the personality at the center of the cult, so there is little chance of course correction. None of this bodes well for Barack Obama. And for the country’s sake, let’s hope it’s wrong.
UPDATE: Part of Paco's assortment.
