“Is the impression [given by] this bobbing and weaving [..] a misimpression? Or are we seeing, as the pundits are now beginning to chant, the true face of Obama? ... It is false. I know it is false because I believe I know the man, and because I know some inside the campaign struggling with these issues. I see them struggling to get it right.” ... “So writes a friend who has raised a b'gillion for Obama: "I feel the campaign is going dangerously off course. I think it’s unclear at this point whether Barack’s word on an issue really matters. It’s unclear what he actually stands for." .. Hey HQ: You've got a guy who really stands for something (the tall thin guy, the one from Illinois). A man whose word really does matter. But you've so bungled the last month that even your core begins to wonder about the core of your candidate. McCain didn't do this to you. You did this to Obama. .. Something is going very wrong here, and someone needs to take note.”
