Via Ta-Nehisi, Ramesh Ponnuru:
It should go without saying that plenty of strong Obama supporters are not getting carried away. But they're not the ones setting the tone. The soprano Renée Fleming recently sang an Obamafied Christmas carol: "In the bleak midwinter, at the Christmas feast, a family leaves Chicago and travels to the East ..." The original starred the Christ child. This fever will break because that's what fevers do. Its sufferers are probably harmless. They sure can be creepy, though.
Fortunately, Ponnuru and his colleagues at National Review refrain from "creepiness" when discussing politicians they admire.
