I was following the essay just fine until the paragraph on clojure. What's it doing there exactly? Is he saying there are no 'elite' programming languages -- except Clojure?

He's saying exactly the reverse. Because clojure makes a traditionally hard task easy, you don't have to be 'elite' to use it.
