2. I can't imagine anyone who supports
Obama thinking he wouldn't be handling this in his usual way.

It was Brilliant..the corporate media won't even show his speeches or they cut away to car chases. It's obvious their tax cuts depend on mccain.

But, from the beginning Team Obama knew they had to win without the corporatemedia.

3. There has never been a time when Obama was on TV and it went badly....
At least not one I can think of.

4. Question about the 30 minute spot.........
Regrettably I got in late and missed it. Was it something that would appeal to the moderates and independant voters, or was it red meat? I suppose it could have been both given Obama's ability to deliver information. The only thing that matters at this late stage is if it had a positive net effect on folks on the fence.

13. It wasn't red meat...
It showed the struggles of middle class Americans that Barack has met while campaigning. He told their stories and they were interviewed about what they're going through as well. In between the stories, Barack would talk about his policies for dealing with creating new jobs, ending our dependence on foreign oil, helping everyone get health insurance, etc.

7. The fact that it seemed "so short" should tell even the doubters all they need to know
That piece was 100% winner - I'm not even interested in KO now - I'm still "in the zone".

14. these people dont learn. way back to his convention when i JUST started paying attention
to him, time and time again he walked it perfectly. by mccains palin pick i had absolutely no qualms obama would handle it exactly as he should. he has time and time and time again proven himself and still, people of little faith.

i really is much more comfortable having confidence in our candidate than not
