Reggie was at the podium so Obama should be out soon.

[Clio the Leo]

39. He FINALLY said "I love you too"! I've been wishing he'd do that. NT

[Muttocracy]

40. was that to the crowd? I've heard him say that before. nt

[jenmito]

41. He ALWAYS says, "I love you back!" Every single time he's given a speech or town hall. n/t

[Clio the Leo]

53. lol, no not always ...... but I've probably missed some. ;)

[jenmito]

57. Yeah-you may have missed some. He ALWAYS says, "I love you back!"

OK-maybe 98% of the time. :D

[Clio the Leo]

65. lol, see, isnt meeting half way fun? Isn't he teaching us well! lol NT

[jenmito]

Yup. :) n/t

[Pirate Smile]

75. I know I've heard him say it dozens and dozens of times.

I stream a lot of speeches and rallies. :)

[jenmito]

79. Same here.

:hi:

[Clio the Leo]

42. "Our Destiny is not written for us, it's written BY us!" ......

..... reminds me of a line from one of my fav. songs as of late, "We're Not Gonna Take It" by Twister Sister "we'll fight the powers that be just, don't pick our destiny 'cause, you dont know us, you dont belong!"

[jenmito]

43. kick again

[NYC_SKP]

44. .

[jenmito]

45. He's ridiculing McCain for suddenly talking like a populist!

[slinkerwink]

47. great!

[jenmito]

52. He just called him "out of touch" for saying the fundamentals of the economy are strong.

[NYC_SKP]

49. "I'd like to see him (McCain) CHANGE giving 750K tax cuts" Nice foil...

masterful...

[Muttocracy]

46. Go Obama - going after the sudden fake populism talk from McSame. nt

[Cha]

51. Good! mcpalin needs to be held accountable

for every single lie they come up with!

[jenmito]

48. He's ripping McCain for calling Carly Fiorina a "role model" after taking a $42 million golden

parachute. :D

[slinkerwink]

54. ha

[Ichingcarpenter]

50. Obama is getting under McCain's skin with this speech.... hitting all the buttons

Great speech with some good one liners.

[jenmito]

55. Not to mention BIDEN'S speech! HE went after McCain even stronger-and THEY'RE

"good friends"! :D

[Ichingcarpenter]

58. Is this on TV right now? I'm not near the TV right now.

He's really going over populous images and themes.

[Clio the Leo]

61. link to internet feed

http://www.cnn.com/video/live/live.html?stream=stream3

[Ichingcarpenter]

64. I'm listening online.. MY point.. are the Networks covering this?

Thanks

[Clio the Leo]

67. sorry no, MSNBC has not, just did a scan of CNN and Faux, nothing. THE TWITS!!!! NT

[slinkerwink]

69. not covered on the news networks at all or on Time's The Page

[Ichingcarpenter]

73. Figures...... THANKS THIS IS IMPORTANT.... and needs to be pointed out!

This is a different speech and they should be covering it.

[Clio the Leo]

81. And MSNBC is showing photographers taking pics of.....

..... and empty committee hearing table thingy.

FOR SHAME!!!!!

[Clio the Leo]

71. Ok NOW he's on CNN. NT

[jenmito]

77. He's been speaking for a half hour already. McCain gets HIS speeches covered

beginning to end.

[Ichingcarpenter]

84. Yeah, the beginning of the speech is just as important caused it slammed McCain

And they didn't show that.

[jenmito]

93. Of course they didn't show that. But they show every single attack McCain and Palin level

against Obama.

[Pirate Smile]

80. No and I don't know why. They did show Biden's but they always show

McCain and Palin's crap so I don't know why there isn't any coverage of this rally.

[jenmito]

62. I don't know. I'm DVRing tv.

[Clio the Leo]

56. "Your dreams cannot be endangered anymore!" NT

[Willo]

59. Isn't just great that Rice is also saying the fundamentals of our economy is strong?

A nice "same as Bush" link to the hip.

Now if Bush will say use that line tonight...

[Clio the Leo]

60. As in Condi? Isn't she the Sec. of State? Why are we asking her? lol NT

[Pirate Smile]

98. The more Bush on TV, the better for us. Get out there everyday, Georgie.

[ps1074]

63. He's on fire today

GOBAMA

[Clio the Leo]

66. and he's just getting started! Friday's gonna be FUN!!!!! NT

[Muttocracy]

70. Just realized Biden's speaking again this afternoon - excellent campaigning while other side hides!

[Clio the Leo]

74. They're not hiding! They're jamming with Bono!!! Come no now! NT

[Muttocracy]

76. they do use Beautiful Day for campaign music, don't they? nt

[Clio the Leo]

89. lol, their music is TERRIBLE, I know that. certainly not anything you can dance to!

..... and really, that's what matters. :)

Speaking of which........

[Pirate Smile]

99. Bono canceled - "scheduling conflict" so they are having a "phone" meeting.

Heh.

[Muttocracy]

102. so she'll have an earpiece on one ear and a phone on the other? nt

[jenmito]

72. kick

[Hope And Change]

78. Kick!Thanks jenmito!

[jenmito]

86. Sure thing, H&C...

happy to help again. :D

[nc4bo]

82. Obama is showing so much passion today!! nt

[Clio the Leo]

85. he can smell victory ....... I know I can. (smells like a rotting moose) NT

[AtomicKitten]

83. Obama is on fire!!!

Thanks for posting the link, Jen.

:hi:

[nc4bo]

87. BWAHAHA Mccain he's playing your song BWAHAHA GOBAMA!!!!!

[Clio the Leo]

94. yep and NOW I know what song I'm gonna be cleaning the house to! NT

[jenmito]

88. How much ya wanna bet they won't report on the size of his massive crowd?

That was as large as Palin's.

[NYC_SKP]

96. Palin's "crowd" size will never be known... How big do you reckon today's was?

:shrug:

[jenmito]

100. Judging by PALIN'S estimated crowd of 65,000, I'd say HIS crowd was at least

a million! :D

[Clio the Leo]

90. "'roundin third and headin' home, a BROWN EYED HANDSOME MAN...... Put me in coach..."

"YOU KNOW THE TIME IS NOW!!!!"

[FrenchieCat]

92. There was this one family in the background that I wished would

have not been back there. They kept fiddling with their hair, shirts, and gadgets and waving a lot, like this was all fun and games, and not about serious issues. They got on my nerves. Seemed like superficial types. Maybe it's just me though.

[Pirate Smile]

95. New song at the end - "Put me in coach, I'm ready to play, today". Is it titled "Center-field"?

I think so.

[Clio the Leo]

97. Yep, here's the MP3 if anyone wants to hear it again......
