I've searched DKos for a diary on this ridiculous Op ed but have not found any. I am completely surprised that no one wrote about this (and if there is a diary on this, please let me know!).
I believe the title says it all but view below for the link and some quotes.

Back in Iowa, Barack Obama promised to be something new — an unconventional leader who would confront unpleasant truths, embrace novel policies and unify the country. If he had knocked Hillary Clinton out in New Hampshire and entered general-election mode early, this enormously thoughtful man would have become that.
But he did not knock her out, and the aura around Obama has changed. Furiously courting Democratic primary voters and apparently exhausted, Obama has emerged as a more conventional politician and a more orthodox liberal.
That's how he starts off. He then goes on to accuse Obama of "fibs, evasions and hypocrisies that are the stuff of conventional politics". He then goes on to read the future that Obama will fail as a president because the promises he's made are stupid and unattainable.
No article about Obama would be complete without saying he's elitist:
Some of us love Hyde Park for its diversity and quirkiness, as there are those who love Cambridge and Berkeley. But it is among the more academic and liberal places around. When Obama goes to a church infused with James Cone-style liberation theology, when he makes ill-informed comments about working-class voters, when he bowls a 37 for crying out loud, voters are going to wonder if he’s one of them. Obama has to address those doubts, and he has done so poorly up to now.
There's more to this despicable article, go read it! I'll add more comments to this shortly, gotta go do something.... plus i'm not sure if this has already been discussed...
