Whether or not he wins the nomination this time around, I think in four or eight years he will be back and win the nomination.

14. Don't buy the BS.... experience isn't an issue NOW |
|
Hillary's "experience" as first lady no more qualifies her for the Presidency than my being the spouse of a surgeon qualifies me to operate on people.
Obama's 46 years old... he's been a politician most of his adult life... he has sound judgement (means that he'd hire the right people), and solid character.
Don't buy into the B.S. line that Hillary's campaign gives.... all but 7 of her "35 years" of experience are as the spouse of a politician.

19. I've really warmed up to Obama. |
|
Still voting Hillary in the primary, and phonebanking for her from home --but if Obama gets the nomination, I'll phonebank for him.

I, too, am committed to proudly supporting whichever of these two fine candidates becomes the nominee.

"Queer For Hillary" whatever happens :)
But I'll swap out my campaign logo --I'll always be queer for Hill.

6. That's depressing because I think the chance is NOW. |
|
It would be such a huge mistake for the Democratic Party to miss this huge opportunity. It would be a disaster and the Democratic Party would deserve it.

Otherwise we would have a THIEF as a nominee: http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2008/2/1/234527/0014/392/448115Who steals credit off the little guy?

I couldn't believe the latest polls.
He's got momentum--as more people in these Super Tuesday states pay attention.
There's only a 3-point spread in CA, according to the latest Rasmussen.
I saw--with my own eyes--what happens to a population when the Obama campaign rolls into town. Plus, he's got the Kennedys campaigning for him.
We can scoff at Oprah all we want, but 14,000 people showed up for an Obama/Oprah event in Iowa. She sparks excitement for Obama and exposes his agenda to tens of thousands. Oprah also helps him with the older/female demographic. It's also great publicity
I think Super Tuesday will be close, but he's got the momentum--and that will carry on beyond Super Tuesday, and put him over the top.

16. The fierce urgency of now is not a slogan. |

This country needs Obama now. We need transformative change that Obama offers, rather that the incremental change that Hillary offers. This is his time. This is our time.

23. After 4 or 8 more years, I don't see how he could run the same kind |

Edited on Sat Feb-02-08 12:23 PM by wienerdoggie
of campaign--he's at his prime right now, taking risks, advocating a new take on politics, energizing the party--he embodies his message perfectly. What the hell is he going to do in 2016? Experience? Yeah, like that worked for Biden and Dodd. It barely works for McCain--take away McCain's POW status, and he's just another career pol. I don't know that his chance will come around again, honestly. It's not a linear process, as someone said above. How does he possibly top this?

There are moments in history and I think this is the moment. After sixteen years of two families. The time for a new generation.
We will never have a moment like this again!!
