Eh, I don't know. It depends how much alienation sets in from this. The platform of Harmony is so ingenious because it neutralizes difference (which is always something that is feared and pushed away), but its always very, very fragile because of it. I mean if just the silly rumor that he was Muslim was panic-inducing in some circles, I can't help but think this is going to snowball. From what I've seen, there is some real alienation going on here.

So the honeymoon seems to be over. I think this will definitely deal a pretty big blow to the campaign. Maybe fatal in the long run, provided Hillary's people don't royally mess up somehow.
