Obama is so ...real.
Watching his Friday press conference, re-running on C-Span.

He asked a woman reporter about her injured arm, with a genuine note of concern.


Confident, calm, and in charge.

For the first time in 40 years, I want to listen to every word a President says.

2. He's the type of guy I'd REALLY want to have a beer with
because I love to talk to people smarter than me. You learn so damn much.

3. She is a Chicago reporter
Lynn Sweet. I think he's known her for years. She was on MSNBC all the time, one of the main reporters all the way through.

4. He is not real. He walks on water, cures the blind and
ditributes ponies. :) Sorry, I couldn't help myself.

He is one smart, charming, handsome man. Oh and he's MY president! Woohoo!

5. i had a talk with an old friend after the election
and the first thing he said to me was "feel it? we don't have to be afraid anymore."

It's still taking a while to totally sink in. The whole Bush thing - fear, fear, fear. We don't have to be afraid any more.

So is Joe, our new VP. Sure beats Shrub and Darth Cheney, huh? :)

8. I feel a need to point out that he's not entirely real...
...just more so than about any other politician I could name. Man's good. Real good.
