Obama's Problem, Summarized

I recently discovered references to Walter Russell Meade's work on The Smallest Minority blog, and did a little research, coming up with this and this which gave me an introduction to Meade's work. Once I did, Barack Obama's worst problem became evident: Jacksonian Americans won't vote for him. And there's a lot of us out there (I'm a Jacksonian).

    One problem with your theory, though:

    The Jacksonians may stay home this year. They don't like McCain any better.

    And thanks for the link!

    Yah, the Jacksonians are definitely disgruntled. In addition to staying home, many might vote for pseudo-libertarian Bob Barr, who could play the spoiler role. Not a good year for conservative Republicans.
