I had a weird reaction to the Obamamercial...

[Bicoastal]

...all of a sudden, I found myself thinking: "Man, I sure hope President Obama gets re-elected."

Honestly, after everything that's happened in the last 8 years, his presence is so comforting to me that I sometimes forget that he's not in charge...

...yet.

:yourock:

[Jennicut]

1. Me too. I forget because he is so calm and in control and seems like such

a natural leader. We all need to vote to make it happen.

[Moody]

2. we are, will and are helping others to do the same. No worries. nt

[Labors of Hercules]

3. you =

[HysteryDiagnosis]

4. I truly believe he will help us put food on our families... n/t

[Whisp]

5. That man is not a liar...

I felt that for months now, but it's confirmed in concrete.

[HughMoran]

6. I'll not accept anything less

He's going to be my President.

[goclark]

7. He has been in our life and made it richer and made us HOPE

and urged us to Work Harder and Stay Fired UP!

He is One of US.

I love him like I would love a son, a dear cousin or friend's child.

I am bursting with pride because he makes the world a better place.

Fired Up!

11. I feel the same. Hope you don't mind me saying this but a year ago I started to pray to God about W

I asked God why he would let someone like that ruin our country. I wondered aloud if there was a plan to it all. My Mom and Sister would always say, "There is a plan for everything under heaven". Now that I look at it all I think how wondrous it is that a man named Barack Obama will be our next President! It is fascinating and shows that there is a reason to everything under heaven. We are our brothers keeper.

Is this the true start of the "age of Aquarius"?

18. I agree with you completely

It seems that at every turn in this race, the wind has been at his back.

When the Economy went sour I couldn't figure it out.
I couldn't understand why our "leaders" had not seen it coming.
But then, funny thing, the Economy has been the issue that has made America realize that "Joe the Plumber" is not the answer - Obama is the only answer.

I wondered why McCain could pick someone like Palin.
Now I'm beginning to see that she was the right pick --- for us.
The wind was at the back of Obama and us again.

Think about all the little things that have "gone his way" and it is really amazing.

Example -- the 30 minute Commercial last night,,, they said that it would ruin the start of the Baseball game, no it did not.

Example --- The Gov. of Florida, a Republican, extended the Voting Time!

19. Thanks for the note - it makes me feel good to know I have someone who can relate to me here on DU

Here's to Tuesday! Cheers!

20. Cheers for Tuesday! nt

22. How weird (and serendipitous) for you to say that - I was talking to

my best friend last night and I said to him (half jokingly) 'This could be the start of the Age of Aquarius'. Weird, huh?

8. dupe. delete.

9. For a second, I thought they were playing Reagan's "Morning in America" spot. However...

... it soon has substance. Wow, what a piece! WHat makes it resonate is Obama's honest character.

[AtomicKitten]

10. I feel bad he has to clean up the epic pile of shit the wingnuts are leaving behind.

[Clio the Leo]

12. He's been in charge since that meeting with fellow congressman at the White House.....

.... where he reportedly put McCain in his place (and McCain whined "he yelled at me!")

It was clear coming out of that meeting that the democrats were CHOOSING to defer to his leadership, and the Republicans were forced to.

So our old addage, "Chill out .... I've got this!" is true in more ways than we can possibly know.

15. I keep saying he reminds me of the way the Michael Corleone

character in the Godfather transformed from young innocent to ruthless leader of the party. Only he's a good guy.

[holiday]

13. that is right. He does feel like the president already

[holiday]

14. that is right. He does feel like the president already

[Santro]

16. I was thinking 8 is not enough!

I mean, really, I may not want this guy to leave the office after 8 years.

[ladjf]

17. Obama's show was a dramatic contrast to McCain's pettiness

and meanness.

[Smuckies]

21. Amazing.
