The Expectation Gap

haha ramone what a hasty generalization of the democratic supporters. Of course the "more mature electorate" supporting hillary are ready for "meaningful and effective change"

heres another hasty generalization: you folks are so full of yourselves it is just plain laughable

HAVING THE EXACT SAME FAMILY IN THE WHITE HOUSE FOR A POTENTIAL EIGHT MORE YEARS IS NOT CHANGE.

transparent government! Obama '08

Nice article! I am of the opinion that the expectation gap is going to be worsened by the generation gap with younger voters - primarily Obama supporters - raving just for "change" or "radical change" rather than "meaningful and effective change" as is being expected by the more mature electorate who are behind Hillary. After all, any change is going to be way better than the Bush years in office and better than one more GOP term in the White House.

The love-fest that has been going on in some of the media that has propelled Obama to current heights and accompanying Clinton-bashing is probably going to hurt the Dems. in November. Lets assume that Obama wins the nomination - its not all that unlikely right now. Whatever the pundits and poll numbers say now, there is a serious possibility of John McCain wooing not only Latino voters to his side but also independent and moderate Dems away from the more left-leaning Obama. I'd say and pray, Hillary to the rescue!

excellent analysis for us voters. I voted for Hillary as she is more experienced in politics and life. However, your article provides me with a balanced view of the two. I trust Hillary much more.
