I hope the Republicans underestimate him the same way that you are.

You're right, I should be more clear because the Bill Clinton team likely underestimated Obama when he was running for head of the Harvard Law Review. Bill likely had someone else in mind.

Maybe you should take a deep breath before posting something negative about the Dem race at every opportunity you get just so you get things a little more clearly.

We get it - you don't like the Dems. How about some thoughtful analysis rather than thoughtless one-off comments? I'm sure my conservative friends (a couple of whom are on this board) will tell you that I'm capable of many thorough conversations about political differences that enlighten them sometimes, at least as much as they enlighten me.

See manimtired, this is the thoughtful analysis I was talking about…
or your ever so smart comment is a perfect analogy to the opinion that republicans underestimated bill and thus lost the election to bush sr….stfu

Not joking. Obviously. I don't find his rhetoric empty at all because it articulates a spirit I see and I think is real in America today. Obama is isn't inventing it, he's personifying it.

That's America baby. What resonates with some, doesn't with others.

Right. For the most part (there are of course exceptions), the president's policies don't have as much of an effect on your day to day life as the policies of your state and local government.

If Obama can surround himself with the right people and give good speeches that make me feel hopeful about things, then that's good enough for me right now.

Who needs the Clinton campaign to do that when you can get a Nobel laureate to do it for you.

Whipsers over the weekend of a possible female running mate:

Kay Bailey Hutchinson

I'm trying to like Obama so I'm not forced to vote for a 197 year old curmudgeon, but so far he hasn't said a fucking thing of substance, even though he runs his yapper constantly. The only thing that group has said that got my attention was when his wife said "for the first time in her adult life she's proud of America"….I mean what the fuck????!!!!! So the potential 1st lady is ashamed of her country?

You mean his supporters know how to use the interwebs? Shocking. He's finally alluding to this fact in his speeches.

The rest of ya'll keep thinking we're idiots simply following the pied piper. Cracks me up.

I think it is very telling that Hillary Clinton keeps plugging her website in her speeches. Says a lot about her base.
She still has a base?
She's still ahead in Texas and Ohio.
