The Ticket needs to apologize because apparently we missed something -- like the next three months and election day.
Sen. Barack Obama walked into a town hall meeting in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, last week. The crowd was enthusiastic, ready to see and cheer him.
But, before listening to his usual stump speech, the crowd, perhaps spontaneously, had something to do for their guy, according to the From the Road blog of CBS News' Allison O'Keefe. The nominee-to-be's fans sang "Happy Birthday." On Monday, Obama will turn 47.
But the happy crowd did not sing "Happy birthday, Sen. Obama."
It confidently sang "Happy birthday, Mr. President."
And Barack Obama looked very pleased to hear it.

So is Britney Spears going to sing “Happy Birthday” to him? How about a duet with Paris Hilton?

Yes, Happy Birthday, Mr. President... whoever that may be. I’ll finally agree with Obama now that change is good... the change in the polls has given me HOPE.

47 years old and has accomplished
nothing.
Never had a real job.
Turned from a half-baked revolutionary into a hack politician in the Chicago machine.
He should be running for Mayor of Chicago.
