I have been reading Will's commentaries over the past year and he has been bemoaning the outcast state of his party - but only on the fringes.

I vehemently disagree that he "would say so". He has NEVER come right out and said anything without couching his words and hiding them among a blizzard of nonsensical SAT test adjectives. He's a JOURNALIST and his entire piece is citing a RW author to use to make his argument. And this particular RW author produced such beauties as that on "Anti-Americanism" that I linked to above, which as you should have noted, was a topic that became a core message out of the Republican party, with the spouting of idiocies about who resided in "real America" and were "real Americans", and where there continues to be a line of propaganda regarding Obama's origins, ideas of patriotism, and intent.

Except for Obama's masterful use of the technology of the day (that Will is fully aware of unless he considers himself a luddite), Will's convoluted argument does not justify his assertion that Obama suddenly "completed" some process "away from" intent. Campaigning requires communicating to the public. Yet Will's use of an "intent" argument about the Presidential election process itself, which is essentially pointing to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Original_Intent">"original intent" theory, would then suggest that what Obama has done was "illegal".
