I’ve been thinking lately that the framing of this election needs to change.  For one thing I’m weary of hearing about winning and fighting for the nomination. Battleground 2008. That is the old frame that has been rejected by Obama.  Its so twentieth century.

This election is not about winning.  It’s about leadership.

Winning and losing are a part of the old paradigm.  Leadership is new only because we haven’t seen much of it in the last fifty years.

Obama is showing through his example what leadership looks like. It is so unfamiliar that many people see it as his weakness.  It is not.
