1. Just saw the cutest footage on MSNBC....
.... little girl in front of Barack in a rope line. As Barack reached OVER the little girl to shake hands with people behind her, she just grabbed onto him really tight.

And he grabbed back. Absolutely adorable.

8. Palin doesn't hold her own baby that way
I've never seen her hold her baby with any kind of love or joy or even connection. She holds him like an ungainly wardrobe accessory.

10. She holds her baby like a prop...
...Obviously, I don't know what's in her heart (assuming she has one) regarding her child. I just know that dragging him from photo op to photo op is not something I admire. It's not as if she can't afford a nanny.

9. I've seen a couple of babies hoisted up to the immediate vicinity of Grampy McBush...
...and the photos did not look anything like the ones I've posted here.

15. That last pic is SO perfect
It's like a torch being set on fire. You can see behind her young eyes the hope of change waiting to be put in motion, and at that moment the prospect of her greatness CAN be fulfilled.

18. Several great ones, but especially
the one with the little boy holding his pictures of Obama...that one made me tear up. The last one is also incredible--that look of innocence and hope...!
