I think Rich's point in his talk is good to re-iterate here. Is jQuery cool? Yes! I would hate to program a webapp in JS without it...but that's the key, "in JS". Why do I need jQuery 90% of the time, because simplifies things like finding dom elements, and adding events, etc. For JS coding, that's a awesome tool to have. But in ClojureScript we have map, filter, macros, etc. Why would I need jQuery? I think it's important to distinguish between libraries that are truly needed to do web programming, and libraries that are needed in JS to do web programming.
