I’m not underestimating him. That’s why I led with “he’s a media star.”You guys don't get it. Obama hasn't even begun to show his fangs yet. He's just playing with Hilary. The big O *does* have a brain, he just hasn't needed to use it yet. This guy is so good it's unbelievable. Mark my words, his nomination will be the worst thing to happen to the republican party since Herbet Hoover.
It’s Oprah vs whoever comes out for McCain (Rush, Hannity, Ingraham, etc...?)
THAT’LL be a story.
“This guy is so good it’s unbelievable.”
Media savy? Media loved? Both? Neither?
“his nomination will be the worst thing to happen to the republican party since Herbet Hoover.”
Sorta mixed metaphores?
The guy who never ran a lemonade stand (I bet Michelle balances the checkbook) will prove his brilliance by running this economy?
A local community activist with minimal history in the US Senate who has never hired, managed or fired a single employee will prove his depth and successfully manage dozens of domestic programs and cabinet level organizations, while dealing with the UN, while maintaining our global alliances, while fighting the WOT, while dealing with the Joint Chiefs as CIC, while resolving the immigration problem, the coming Social Security collapse, the health care debacle, the pending global oil crisis and one or two other minor issues...
It seems to me that you have been seduced by the cult of personality that is the Obama movement.
I don't deny that there are enough suckers and political children in America to elect this empty suit but I believe that an Obama administration would elevate even Jimmy Carter to the pantheon of great leaders in comparison.
