Rejected New Yorker Cover

Thanks to Fritz for the leak.

Good Quote: "It's not surprising then that the poverty stricken terrorists get bitter, they cling to planes used as missiles or radical religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them, such as innocent American citizens."

Again, Obama displaying that he can only conceive of problems in Marxist economic terms. Every problem -- from terrorism to the more serious problems of gun ownership and faith in God -- is explicable as a symptom of the Ruling Classes stealing wealth from the Proletariat.

Keep Hope Alive: Obama's "sense of entitlement" and "arrogance" causes resentments among the party's leaders and officials. Ed Morrissey spins an optimistic revolt-of-the-superdelegates scenario.

Arrogance? Shush yo' mouth:

In his pre-campaign book, "The Audacity of Hope," Barack Obama proclaims, "I find comfort in the fact that the longer I'm in politics the less nourishing popularity becomes, that a striving for rank and fame seems to betray a poverty of ambition, and that I am answerable mainly to the steady gaze of my own conscience."
