from obamicans to remocrats. 20 years of divide and conquer
and we are still getting played. i find this 24 hour spin cycle downright scary.
and what a shame that so many here want to play that game.
just who is drinking koolaid here, and who is trying to take this country back?
for the answer, go here.

1. Harder to distinguish when the propaganda is tailored to you
it's disguised as a fantasy.

9. If your intention wasn't as a hit piece implying Obama support came from Republicans, I apologize.
We've been getting a lot of that here lately.

4. I think some of this is a huge backlash
Everything that W is personally, Obama is not. Obama is smart and appears to be a warm and even normal human being. The contrasts could make a long list but you know know what I'm getting at. So when Obama hit the scene with his personal style plus the qualifications, people are flocking. It's like americans realize that we can produce a person qualified and who doesn't have anything to do with the past. Unfortunately, Hillary has Bill with all the good, bad & ugly.

All of these have converged. A matter of the right time and person. A fresh start that Americans need badly. Hillary isn't a bad person, it's that Obama is a right person and he stepped into the arena.

6. we have been waiting a long time for this
it`s been 40 years since there has been anyone as exciting as barrack. i really happy that i did get to see the rebirth of our party after 40 years. i think there are a lot of people here that do not understand what this means...

7. well, hopefully,
once the primaries are settled, he will sneak up on them. i wonder if some of these folks have ever even really listened.
it doesn't bother me that people support hillary so much as that they swallow the spin. shouldn't we be smarter than that by now?
well, between barack and dean, it should be pretty interesting.

11. money can't buy you hope.
I can't define what is going on, but seeing all these people in state after state not only walking the walk to the voting booth, but organizing in those numbers, sure looks like some kind of democracy to me.
