    A lot of Dems seem to try too hard replicating Obama. It’s like those Hollywood execs who see an archetype popular with an audience and then obnoxiously try to create more of the same with actors who can’t pull it off.

      They were all trying to imitate Clinton for a short time, because he delivered a big win, and they are deeply conservative and atavistic people who are loath to attenpt anything new. As soon as Obama won, he was the new meta. Before Clinton, I guess it would have been Kennedy.
