Edwards Wins Iowa - for Obama
By Bill Burkett (about the author) Page 3 of 3 page(s)
John Edwards told the truth. Barack Obama made it easy, and in fact, pleasurable to talk about change, without having to provide a definition of that change, as he sees it, or how it will be measured.
If Obama continues, does he have the gravitas to use John Edward's understanding of change without being threatened by his superior depth of experience and knowledge, or does he jettison the very architect of the change message?
Or, does Barack Obama now cater to an uncrafted strategy that may or may not be deeper than a single word - Change?
How long will he use or be allowed to use the George W. Bush Class President strategy for election?
Hillary Clinton and the Democratic establishment have not given up in the race. They are still alive and a factor, even though they are not being reported.
But the clamor for change is now documented in both the Republican and Democratic parties. That fact goes beyond the recognition of Joe Trippi or Charlie Rose. It's an expression that America can do better than the status quo.
Is that expression a dream, or well rooted in foundational thought?
Barack Obama won Iowa on the back of Change. What is his vision and plan for change? Is it substance or packaging? Is its result a regrowth of America which includes reclaiming individual rights, pocketbooks and national treasure through leadership, or is it simply playing defense to the increasing onslaught against the nation both domestically and abroad?
Can he win America by providing Change?
