Now that I’m a registered Democrat, I’m getting all kinds of interesting calls. Yesterday I got a call from John Brenner, the mayor of York, Pennsylvania. (Now, in case you don’t know me, Mayor Brenner and I don’t speak all that often.) This was part of Obama’s ongoing damage-control, and I guess that Brenner was the best Obama-supporter he could find in rural Pennsylvania.
Anyway, Mayor Brenner told me that Obama was right, that we are bitter “frustrated” about the economy. (That stuff about our religion, guns, and xenophobia didn’t come up.) I was amazed. They think it’s a good idea to call people up and tell them about their own bitterness?! Even here in Pennsylvania, most people don’t need Barack Obama to explain their own feelings to them. Brilliant, guys.
