Obama is largely a stage presence defined mostly by his powerful rhetoric. The trouble, at least for me, is the huge and deceptive gap between his captivating oratory and his actual views. ...If you examine his agenda, it is completely ordinary, highly partisan, not candid and mostly unresponsive to many pressing national problems. ...He has run on the vague promise of "change," but on issue after issue -- immigration, the economy, global warming -- he has offered boilerplate policies that evade the underlying causes of the stalemates. These issues remain contentious because they involve real conflicts or differences of opinion.
The Liberal Democrats try now and again to evade fighting lost argument by reinventing themselves with names like "New Democrat" and rejecting "liberal" label, but pushing the same slogans. Obama takes a different tack, and weaves his campaign into a narrative of social advance. In other words, vote for the multi-racial multi-culti progressive to get to the Liberal Nirvana. He out Hillary'd Hillary. But in his narrative, the liberal advances in the 1960s were not mistakes but preludes to what is to come. If we rejected 1960s liberalism before, why would we accept its 21st century offspring? The battle is not a new battle after all. These are not new ideas, but old ideas in new package. Obama's 'change' message is simply the tactical call to reject non-liberal policies and move America left.

Obama's New Vulnerability by Karl Rove: "For Mr. Obama, words are merely a means to hide a left-leaning agenda behind the cloak of centrist rhetoric. That garment has now been torn. As voters see what his agenda is, his opponents can now far more effectively question his authenticity, credibility, record and fitness to be leader of the free world."
