OK, I read it.  Some of what was said I agree with, other, such as painting NPR as the bastion of fair and balanced news, I don't.  I used to listen to NPR on the way to and from work, but when their bias came out so vivdly in the Bush-Kerry race I became an ex-lstener. 

The author correctly paints Obama, as a savvy politician and knew what he needed to do to get elected. 

And it is not just the lazy takers who helped get him there.  His social policies, especially with regard to homosexuality and abortion, I believe probably brought in enough extra votes to make the difference in the election.  A person very close to me voted for Obama just for that reason.  It wasn't the fiscal side that drove his vote, it was the social side.

The chaacterization of Marco Rubio is especially unfair.  He is a leader whose time hasn't quite arrived, smart, articulate, and exceptionaly mature for his age.

I detected a wee bit of "haha look at those poor Repubs" in the article, but as closely as the author could I think he tried to avoid getting emtional bout it.

Finally, the article didn't tell me anything I didn't already know.  It all boils down to a choice between being touchy-feely, leading to eventual decline into irrelevance and the philosophy that is responsible for this nation being the wealthiest on earth
