Obama may be young and cool, McCain said, but his ideas are "old" and "tired." It was a strong attack, but watching him deliver a set speech with a clenched grin to a partisan crowd may have made voters miss the McCain who made them feel like part of some feisty rebel band, not deckhands on the Death Star.

Considering the duration and the intensity of the contest, her attacks against him have been mild by historical standards...
...After all, Barack Obama had been hearing from the very same sorts of people all year. And if he had not been as successful in gaining the support of working-class Caucasians, that had been as much a consequence of their prejudices as it was of his Ivy-cool mien. His army of young idealists, the brilliant organizers who had built his campaign from the ground up in Iowa and elsewhere, had won this nomination fair and square, and his nervously proud African-American supporters - never far from tears - were every bit as moving as Clinton's suffering Caucasians...
