O-B-A-M-A!
Well, he did it! Senator Obama stayed away from the rhetoric last night and got down to the issues. He started off with firm attacks against opponent John McCain and continued to detail the action he would take in Washington.Okay, so, maybe the greek temple thing was a bit much, (Jon Stewart's Circle of Life parody was pretty hilarious) but hey, it's not the worst idea to harken back to MLK's speech at the Lincoln Monument. But his speech had no smoke and mirrors last night. Getting down to the real issues helped bring down all that deification symbolism and made him seem like a real contender for the presidency of this country.Sorry for the title, Ginny, I couldn't resist!

No smoke and mirrors but a lot of shredded paper and fireworks - rather like a rock star! :) Hey, I love the fact that he uses the fact that he is young and loved around the world to his advantage. I also admire how his staff utilizes the internet, cell phones, emails, etc., etc. Smart, very smart.
