FUCK McCain's VEEP. Let's talk about OBAMA's speech last night!!
He's gonna LOSE anyway.. I was struck by Obama's speech, best I've seen in 40 years, I remember the Kennedy, "Ask NOT" speech as a kid, and the thrills and chills sent through my little body then..

same feel last night.

I want people to realize what Obama represents in one word:

CLARITY.

It's what's been missing for 8 years, and even the Democrats have not supplied it, but last night CLARITY was up front and center as Obama laid it out, and punked McCain.

Most of all I admire Obama's BRAVERY. Can you imagine being a black man and running around espousing these LIBERAL ideals in this day and age when Bush has unleashed Brownshirts? Jesus, I can't believe the strength of our candidate.

So let's TALK OF OBAMA and keep McCain on Page 9 where he belongs, eh? :)

2. That's what I was thinking...
who gives a shit who it is....and people going back and forth on who it is, are just doing what McCain wants them to do....I wouldn't give him that satisfaction.

3. Exactly!
for god's sakes people, if they want you to do something, then we need to DO the OPPOSITE, haven't folks figured that out yet? :)

Man, People, don't bitch about the media, and then talk only about what they frame!!

Thanks for the insight..
