How many times has kos posted something to the effect of: "Wow. We're up to 100,000 registered posters." Or, "Amazing. 1 million hits tonight... that's a new record!" I've seen similar remarks of achievement here. Is expressing a very human reaction of awe and humility at how large or how passionate the dkos movement has gotten being "mystified" by it, or having that reaction somehow translate into a feeling that it's all quite "weird?" Hardly. But Obama's not supposed to show similar awe and humility at the level of "movement" support behind him, right? He's just supposed to take in stride that 3500 people showed up to an event his campaign didn't lift a finger for. But not too much in stride, lest anyone think he is taking a person -- or a movement -- for granted.
