I don't think we've seen the kind of Democratic patriotism that Obama is promoting since Roosevelt. Even when Kennedy was elected, there were major divisions in the country among Democrats. Obama is showing the Republicans the same sort of thing that Reagan showed the Democrats (only Obama's doing it even better). He's asserting the power and patriotism of the Democrats and all his other supporters to great effect. He's completely crushing the Republican meme that Democrats are somehow unAmerican. It's an awesome display by Obama, and it will leave the right-wing in tatters.
