I thought this last paragraph from Clive Crook’s blog post about Obama’s recent “bitter” comment was really funny.
Pandering is one thing. It is to be expected of politicians. But it is unwise, and it violates the etiquette of the profession, to say that you are pandering. Hillary panders to anti-trade sentiment, to the religious, and now (can this be correct?) to gun enthusiasts–all with apparently total conviction. Obama panders less well. I think it is a question of experience.
Read the whole thing for a good dissection of Obama’s comment and Hillary’s response to it.
