I'll make this brief.

Apparently a lot of you don't get Barack Obama.  I saw this problem coming a mile off, especially during that brief window where Kos didn't care for Obama and preferred Edwards.  The problem is very simple, and the way it's played out is pretty funny to me.

Barack Obama isn't a knife-fighter.  He doesn't slash, he doesn't go for the face.  Barack Obama finesses his opponents.  He outthinks them.  He seldom lands a blow because he seldom needs to.  He's great on the counterpunch, but his heart really isn't into bloodletting.

The netroots wants someone to make the Republicans pay for what they've done.  The netroots wants someone to kick their asses, if not kick in their teeth.  Well guys, if that's what you want, you don't know Barack Obama.

And I do...
