Favorite Moments of Election 2008
...So far.

There are so many. Three of mine are below. What are yours?


1. The "Yes We Can" Speech.

After placing second in the New Hampshire primary, Barack absolutely refused to wilt under the weight of the expectations game. He stepped up in a huge way and demanded the nation rally for the cause of change with him. The last five minutes of this speech ... heroism in the name of people-powered democracy.

2. The Bill O'Reilly Interview.

After being taunted for months by the blustery blowhard, Obama goes on "The Fuckter" and stands firm against the bully tactics...confident, tough as nails. In yo face, Dildo!

3. The 2008 DNC Speech

What can you say? It was a landmark event that equalled the grandious built up and then some. No Democrat with a pulse could have been a part of that speech and not been beaming with pride. "Enough!"

2. A minor one, but Barney Smith from Indiana
his story from the DNC should be included. I would love to see Barney school Joe The Plumber, about Obama and the working class.
