That article was an unfortunately poor explication of a promising
tagline: "We don't need the "everything sucks" analysis; Obama has
mobilized millions of activists and that energy is looking for an
outlet."

I am afraid beating up on this article in no way proves your point
about the Obama movement. I'd suggest answering in this kind of depth
one of Julio Huato's posts on the subject instead.
