"a way better sermon than they'll ever hear at church"

The dissent of the day at Andrew Sullivan's blog:

when people read articles on Obama, including [Andrew Sullivan's] very well-written one in The Atlantic, what type of info do they get? Soaring prose on how Obama's "face" will change the world, how inspiring he is, how he will "bring us together" in some vague, unquantifiable way. I've got to say --- his advocates aren't doing him any favors with lightweight defenses of him.
We've been waiting for somebody to let some of the air out of the balloon that Sullivan's blog has become.
