#1 at this point, he's a blank slate: he's everything to everyone - he's a floor wax AND a dessert topping!

wait til you get to know him - if he ever takes a principled clear cut position....Hillary won't be a happy camper this weekend, it's ObamaMania! The MSM is in full swoon.

#2 Ask him how he got his Gold Coast home on such a poor financial state to own one.

#3 checking out the announcement on MSNBC, I note that the crowd is like 98% white

#5 There seems to be an undercurrent here of nearly sub-conscious dimensions, that says if we can elect a brown-skinned man with an Arabic name , that this will somehow mollify the Islams and show them how nice and tolerant we are.
I don't think so.
If we elect a guy who's middle name is Hussein, the nutbags will just take it as a sign that they are winning.
This is costing me friends, since it sounds bad when you say it out loud.

#9 I sat again the smile reminds me of Jimmy Carter and his 'professional smile'.

Right now I don't want a president who can smile - I want one who can kick ass..... :)

Sorry.

#12 #7 Frank - You're right, of course. At least among white leftists.

I've got a clue for these jackoffs: Although I was happy to vote for (Democrat) Douglas Wilder for Governor of Virginia (first black governer elected in ANY state post-Reconstruction), because he was less crazy than whoever it was the Republicans were running that year, I will NOT be voting for Obama (or, as Teddy calls him, Osama).

I don't care if he's black, white, or pink with purple polka-dots - I refuse to vote for a socialist.

#13 I don't know, Barbara. I don't think I could ever vote for someone who was lime-green with purple and orange polka dots - even if he billed himself as a "conservative". Obama can run all he wants to - but he may have to run even faster if he gets the nomination. George Bush's track record wasn't the best, but he at least had one. This guy is almost a total unknown. I'd even vote for Guiliani before I'd vote for Barak Obama, and I don't particularly care for Guiliani. Heck, I'd even vote for Tom Tancredo, running as an independent, before I'd vote for Obama. At least Tancredo has a track record.
