Explaining The Left's Hunger for Obama By Seth Swirsky
He has passed no significant legislation, is head of no official movement, has never run a business and, until he gave a speech at the Democratic National Convention in 2004, barely anyone had ever heard of him. And yet, Barack Obama appears poised to be the Democrats' standard bearer, with a following that now consistently fills basketball arenas, in state after state, with 20,000 supporters who hang on his every word (or sneeze), cheer his pronouncements, and regularly swoon into faints.
What can possibly explain the cult-like following surrounding this silver-tongued, political neophyte? There must be something more.
