Jeremy plays the Sammartini Cello Sonata, Movements 2&1 - in that order - at a Nov 2007 fall concert. Normally I don’t post the boys’ concert videos here but this one is particularly good so I’m making an exception.

Mr. Obama is speaking. He looks happy, for the first time in a long time. “Thank you, North Carolina. I love you too.”

"I saw the ads"

So what’s changed? I asked Reich.

“I saw the ads” — the negative man-on-street commercials that the Clinton campaign put up in Pennsylvania in the wake of Obama’s bitter/cling comments a week ago — “and I was appalled, frankly. […] Those ads are nothing but Republicanism. They’re lending legitimacy to a Republican message that’s wrong to begin with, and they harken back to the past 20 years of demagoguery on guns and religion. It’s old politics at its worst — and old Republican politics, not even old Democratic politics. It’s just so deeply cynical.”
