...reproach to Clinton by his best-loved constituency, those unutterably decent, hardworking, middle-class, churchified African Americans. They had been shocked and hurt, and then enraged, by his foolish, two-week effort to diss Barack Obama. The next crowd, at Hillary Clinton's closing rally in Columbia, was equally pale and must have been deeply depressing to the ex-President. I remembered a huge interracial crowd in the Mississippi Delta, late in Clinton's presidency. I was standing next to Jesse Jackson, who was quite moved by the "glorious" sight of whites and blacks salt-and-peppered through the audience...

...told him what the lettering really said, and he looked over at the crowd of now hostile Iraqis. He turned pale. "Oh s--t man, I didn't know" he said. "Can you explain that to them?"

But the most indelible images are of clouds of pale dust billowing down city streets and shredded copy paper sifting down out of the sky in eerie silence, images that instantly evoke the 9/11 attacks.
