I had one of 'those' conversations with an Obama supporter today
I was at work when I ran into one of those Obama supporters. We've known each other for a while and I took him to an Obama rally some weeks back. The conversation went like this:

Coworker: I can't wait to vote in November for Obama.
Me: Yeah, I can't wait either.
Coworker: Seriously, we're going to win.
Me: I know.

It was horrible. It was like he was under in some sort of hope induced coma. I didn't have the heart to tell him I haven't gotten my pony yet. His head might implode.

3. I can't tell you how many people I talk to who...
say with certainty "Barack is going to be our next President." A woman I was having lunch with yesterday just said it as a fact.

If the power of positive thinking holds any power, Barack has the wind at his back.

5. Weird. I've had some of those conversations, too.
They always seem so ... inspired. It's kind of strange, but I'm getting use to it.
