Barack Obama's wins in the red states of the West in yesterday's primaries put him in a difficult position. His campaign may be tempted to trumpet this -- as some supporters here on dkos already have -- as proof that he can take red states in November. But I see storm clouds for him on that particular horizon. And those clouds are all about Iraq.
By claiming to have been "right on day 1" about Iraq as failed imperial adventurism, Obama has painted himself into a corner that could prove to be a prison in any general election contest, but particularly in the red state West.
