Obama campaign's brilliant rope-a-dope.....

[blitzen]

They got Hillary (and McCain) to hammer away at the "all rhetoric no substance" thing--and now, on the national stage in his victory speech, he delivers a great, detailed platform!

1. He and Axelrod know exactly what they are doing.

[RummyTheDummy]

5. Axelrod is impressive. Where was he in '04.

[THUNDER HANDS]

9. running Edwards' campaign, i believe

[TheDonkey]

15. I felt he did a bad job with Edwards but maybe his hands were tied. I dunno but I was worried

when I saw Axelrod sign up with Obama. So far though the campaign has done extremely well and he should get some credit.

2. You never give details until you must, It just gives them more time to tear them apart.

[keep_it_real]

3. Indeed, full of detail but still INSPIRING; he's the man for America

And America is ready for him. God preserve and protect him.

[Coexist]

4. and, as noted by the commentators, no teleprompters tonight

this is all Obama!

He is a velvet hammer.

[nomorewhopper]

10. i know, he was all alone, middle of 20 thousand people, and he just delivered

he delivered his speech and it sounded real and heartfelt and i loved the details

[snooper2]

13. And we missed the 6 year old sing the national anthem..

as he mentioned in the beginning, I bet that would be cool/scary to do if you are 6 :)

6. As Commander-in-Chief

Take that McBush.

7. Did you hear the crowd roar when he said that?

[tekisui]

8. They liked the sound of it.

So did I.

11. It gave me chills. I could imagine him standing there, in front of the entire world,

and taking the oath of President. How awesome a moment!

[Avalux]

12. He did an awesome Q & A in San Antonio yesterday.

Spent about an hour and a half answering questions in detail. :hi:

[boppers]

16. Screened Questions?

(Did they sound that way?)

[DUyellow]

17. not to me, watched it on internet

[CorpGovActivist]

14. As my Paw Paw used to say...

... "give an idiot enough rope, and he'll hang himself with it."

Obama has given the McClintCamps (TM) all the rope they needed to do themselves in.
