[MagickMuffin]

I don't know if this was already posted, I didn't see it when scanning GDP.

[Hutzpa]

1. Thanks for the heads up,

:thumbsup:

[FrenchieCat]

2. Finally!

I was starting to believe that C-Span wasn't worth a good godDamn anymore.

Thank for informing me. :hi:

[grantcart]

3. kick

[BlooInBloo]

4. Bless you for putting the time zone in.

[parasim]

5. Hopefully they'll still show it live, since Hillary was an hour late in her's...

She was supposed to be on at 7 but didn't get there until 8... I imagine they will still show the recording of Obama's, though it may not be live.

on edit: nope! looks like it's right on schedule! yoohoo!

[Kittycat]

6. Excellent, I cannot wait!

I'm sure it will be a great rally too. It's been a couple of weeks since I've seen a full one, and quite a bit has taken place. After last night's big event, and the whistle stop's today - I bet he'll knock another homerun out of the ballpark.

[VenusRising]

7. Thank you!

Declaring Independences from the politics that tear us down

Obama!

[Zachstar]

23. OH-BA-MA!! the people Cheer!!

[Zachstar]

24. One thing for certain. End of the Bush Administration

[redstate_democrat]

25. Did you se Obama give McCain the finger?

:sarcasm:

[ellisonz]

26. Taking on McCain.

"He believes that George Bush's economic policies and I'm quoting have actually shown great progress"

[Tribetime]

27. wow he scratched the same way again...2 fingers

[babylonsister]

28. Maybe that's how he scratches? Maybe he's itchy after being

on the road all day? :shrug:

[Tribetime]

29. I wasn't serious

[Zachstar]

30. What does that have to do with Gas prices or the war?

[Tribetime]

40. hey I'm with you, I was being sarcastic

[ellisonz]

31. Taking on Clinton.

"Senator Clinton is a capable smart tenacious person...but Senator C;inton essentially has one argument for why she should be elected, that she's been in Washington a very long time."

[Zachstar]

32. Hate to say this but he looks pretty tired.

I hope he takes sunday off. He looks like he needs it.

Then again he has been going on a train all day and talking at stops so I would be tired as well.

.. Seems to have perked up again

[Diamonique]

58. He sure does look tired.

His energy level is way down. And he *still* gave a great speech!

But I'm sure he won't be taking any time off. He's on a roll!

[The River]

33. TY

Kick

[Pavlovs DiOgie]

34. Thanks

I'm watching it right now!

[Willo]

35. "She'll be vastly better than Bush but that's a low bar"

[ellisonz]

39. That's gonna leave a mark.

:o

[kentuck]

78. That was a great quote..

Hillary will be vastly better than Bush...............But that's a very low bar. We can do better than that."

[malik flavors]

36. Obama always has the most colorful crowds. It's great to see.

[Zachstar]

37. Clinton will be better than Bush but that is a low bar <<<-- LOL! Nice

[backscatter712]

38. Gotta keep listening to his speeches periodically.

This is our next President. And yes, I mean OUR President, not a President in the back pocket of oilmen, lobbyists and corporate fat cats.

[Zachstar]

41. Apollo project for Renewable energy

[Imagevision]

42. Thnx! just tuned in @ 9:04 so its still going for a while...

[MarjorieG]

43. How can he even speak after so many speeches?

Did any network show or non-PA mention the great Philly rally yesterday?

[noel711]

44. Barack sounds exhausted, and this is a long weekend...

hope he can get some rest for the home stretch...

[Sensitivity]

49. not rest till tuesday, unfortunately.

[Zachstar]

45. Im skinny but I am tough!!

[Zachstar]

Creating a movement for change in washington

[ellisonz]

46. U-N-I-T-Y!

[SeattleGirl]

47. I love what he's saying!

:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[Zachstar]

48. He is doing great! He has earned a GOOD sleep!

[SeattleGirl]

53. Yes, he has!

God, if for no other reason, I could not keep up a pace like that which is required to campaign.

[Willo]

50. He said he knew there were some republicans out there..called Obamicans

I think it was the republicans in the crowd that cheered and waved a bit.

[Zachstar]

51. I heard that as well!

[Imagevision]

52. geeez! when you hot you're freeggin HOTT!

[Dbdmjs1022]

54. Im diggin this even more than his speech last night in Philly!

[ellisonz]

55. "I am reminded every day...that I am not a perfect man."

[jefferson_dem]

56. Barack is channeling something really special right now.

The line about "settling". This is so much more than personal for him. I'm so proud!

[SeattleGirl]

57. I'm tired of "settling", and so are a lot of other people.

Go BAMA!

[Willo]

61. yes. He challenged them to vote their hope on something different

based on what they seen him build in his campaign.

paraphrasing:
"easier to vote the status quo
"maybe, just maybe..this time, things will be different.

[redstate_democrat]

67. I love Obama.

[Zachstar]

59. Well overall a good speech. It is too bad he was exhausted tho.

I wont hide it. He was tired. Long train trips do that!

Tho I think he delivered his points well and the people were supportive so A GREAT day for Obama!!

On track for change!!!

[babylonsister]

75. I agree; he's pooped! Still, folks were jazzed. nt

[ellisonz]

60. Working the fence line.

Man, that crowd is fired up and ready to go vote, on Tuesday!

[C_U_L8R]

62. signed sealed delivered

i'm yours !!

[washingdem]

63. He's ours!

[gblady]

79. I'm yours....

I just love it when this song comes on after his speech...
makes me dance for joy!

[Willo]

64. His security ain't playing. n/t

[ellisonz]

68. No they aren't.

There have been without a doubt been death threats.

:scared:

At least the crowd is so packed it would make it hard to wield a pistol.

[SeattleGirl]

65. It's rather fascinating watching the Secret Service guys with him.

There eyes never stop looking around.

[Willo]

69. yes and the cocoon they try to him in.

[SeattleGirl]

73. And what a balancing act that has to be, not only with Obama, but

with any candidate (well, other than Bush, who never wanted we great unwashed to get near him). Allowing space for the candidates to get close to the crowds, shake hands, give autographs, etc., and yet providing as much security as possible.

Not a job I'd want, but kudos to those who do it.

[Tribetime]

66. playing Springsteen

[BeyondGeography]

70. Lots of excitement...people love this guy

It's great to see.

[babylonsister]

71. This "is" rock star status! Very encouraging to see; thanks! nt

[Willo]

72. Jeez, talk about anticlimatical

Bush speaking now

[SeattleGirl]

74. OMG! I'm so glad I changed the channel!

[backscatter712]

77. That's a hell of a contrast.

Start with a speech by Obama, then immediately switch to a speech by Bush.

Bush's speech is slurring a bit...

And he's responding to reporters' questions with that God damned psychopathic smirk.

[MagickMuffin]

76. The event will REAIR @ 12:25 AM EDT

I can't get enough of OBAMA

[FrenchieCat]

80. That's me too. That's why he will become President,

because we are not the only ones who feel that way.

[mystieus]

81. Pics?

Any pics of the event up yet?

[MagickMuffin]

82. From Obama's website

I must confess I did this one.

[mystieus]

83. yup!

Thank you MagickMuffin.
