Magic, yes. What Obama doesn't seem to have, as of yet, are any, you know, ideas.
He's going to bring the nebulous concept of "change" to Washington. Yippee. What does he mean by that? Salisbury steak in the cafeteria on Tuesdays? Everyone wears plaid on Thursdays?
I'd like some specifics before I'm sold. Other than "now bad, me good."everybody wants the most they can possibly get
for the least they could possibly do0 -

He has a chance
It's going to be another 49% / 51% election for Hillary courtesy of Diebold unless something miraculous happens imo.Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
over specific principles, goals, and policies.

i agree... but this is how the primarys work... platforms... then once the general gets started you start to roll out your more detailed plans...
and i do like some of his policies already... such as raising the ss cap (no brainer in my world)
however he is not progressive enough for me, but none are progressive enough to satisfy me...0 -

It's going to be Hillary.
wait and see.
If he does win....it will be a miracle.
Its a miracle he won in Iowa. Its a miracle he damn near won (probably did win) in New Hampshire. Its a mircle he beat hillary by damn near 30 freaking points in SC after trailing by 20 about a month ago. i believe in miracles.
i agree, hillary has the Old Boy Network behind her and if she loses, it will be a pleasant surprise. But i'm hopeful again."When all your friends and sedatives mean well but make it worse... better find yourself a place to level out."0 -
I like Obama and he will get my wife's vote too...........we'll see what happens soonWe all walk the Long Road...

absolutely not, the classiness of Obama is pretty much shining through the hidious win at all cost clinton tactics.
They have shills all over talking about how "race friendly" they are. Ok. Whatever. I have no doubt a lot of people are indebted to the Clintons or they have paid off a few people as sleazy as they are....all I know is that I hope Obama gets the democratic nomination. I'd feel a lot better with him as President than I would with Hillary. She is so outright phony it's incredible. If they were republicans...they'd already be out of the running. No republican would ever have the people defending their remarks like they've had. They'd be crucified with the stuff they've said recently.My Girlfriend said to me..."How many guitars do you need?" and I replied...."How many pairs of shoes do you need?" She got really quiet.0 -
I am 43 years old. I made my first political donation in my life on Saturday night. To Obama.

I might go on the record and say his speech on Saturday night might be one of the greatest speeches I've ever heard.
It's exactly what needed to be said, and said exactly what it should.0 -

agreed. It really sounded very Presidential, IMO.
We also watched John Edwards and "eh", not so much.
When Hilary spoke, I about died laughing...even CNN cut to a break.0 -

I found it a bit odd that before Obama spoke, we hear from BILL, and then after Obama gives his amazing speech we hear Hillary give a speech that rivals McCains speech the night he won NH.0 -

i think his lack of washington experience is an asset... people are tired of the establishment... and he knows it
I agree. I think Obama has a positive "make change for a brighter day" message, which is far more inspiring than the "everything is shit" message of Hillary. He makes you want to be proud to be an American.
I think this is what Obama meant when he mentioned Reagan in a prior speech; Reagan spoke the same way during a down period in American moral (the late 70's).Do you remember Rock & Roll Radio?0 -
