So I take it we're all pretty much OK with Obama today?

I seem to recall there was a bit of a fuss over the weekend.

1. Stick "Obama" into the DU Search engine

and see how we are with him.

:evilgrin:

2. Once I saw Obama being attacked on DU in advance of his speech

I figured I'd like him, since it was the usual suspects doing the attacking.

3. Always have been.

Now I have much greater respect for him.

4. I called Jack Ryan's office after someone here

posted a thread about him having some ahole follow Obama. Then i called Obama's office to tell them about my call and they actually called me back later that day to thank me for my support. I think his speech was excellent, i felt good watching him, i felt positive.

5. Obama's speech removed nearly four years of despair from me

and restored a hope that I haven't felt since the impeachment of Clinton.

7. yup

uplifiting and hopeful, the right has nothing to counter that with at all.

6. Obama's speech convinced me the party is worth fighting for
