The chapter discusses the challenges faced by a candidate like Obama in a polarized political environment. It explores the mixture of moralism and cynicism about the country's ability to improve, along with the vitriolic culture from the right. The chapter raises questions about whether Obama would need to distance himself from certain aspects of the mainstream and progressive spaces to have a chance at winning in places like Indiana.
