Open Left:: Obama's Consolidation of the Party
“Over 1.25 million Indianans voted yesterday for Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama in the Democratic presidential primary.
In 2004, Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry received 969,000 votes in the state of Indiana…in the general election.”
“The primary has been exceptionally good for party building. Obama has created a number of significant infrastructure pieces through his campaign, displacing traditional groups the way he promised he would by signaling the end of the old politics of division and partisanship.”
