Looks like Chris Matthews was already getting tingles:

You inspired me to very briefly surf in time to hear Chris Matthews say Obama is “a hell of a speaker”.

Let’s see if Chrissy is right.

This guy could be a good Democratic Presidential candidate, but not til 2016 or 2020.

“That’s exactly what he’s doing. Please. Obama is slicker than Slick Willie.”

Good Job.

FReepers mass55th and John Lenin, among others, had him pegged.

I greatly appreciate your dredging up this important slice of history.

The first time I got that spooky feeling about Obama was when I read a comment at Ace of Spades around April or May of 2007:

“You know he’s going to pull this off, don’t you?”

FReepers like Dog knew back in 2004 what some FReepers were still denying as recently as October 2008 ...that Obama was a very lethal package, and was not to be ignored. I remember some people saying late last year that Obama could never win because 'none of their relatives, workmates and friends would ever vote for him,' not realizing that that was a closed-loop system that was highly susceptible to error (since your family, friends and work-place acquintances are VERY LIKELY to have the same political and social viewpoints that you have, thus it would be expected that they would also be very anti-Obama).

That old thread is quite interesting - particularly those FReepers who could see that Obama was more than a lapboy for Kerry. Just as interesting is how some FReepers even went as far as saying he would make a good republic ....basically, Obama's oratory skill/illusion had managed to make them see him as a viable choice on our side, if he could 'only jump the aisle.' That was a major danger sign.

Going forward, the good news is that his illusions and obfuscation are starting to wear thin at the edges, and already buyers remorse is setting in. He oversold, overpromised, and evidently cannot deliver.
