Can I just take a quick second to kiss Barack Obama's ass?
Seriously now... how awesome is it that we finally have a Democratic candidate that doesn't take any sh*t? I love Al Gore. I love John Kerry. They are two great men. But they just did not know when to fight back. Obama and his camp have danced around every punch thrown at them beautifully, and not without punching back when they were done.

I've always been proud of our candidates and the campaigns they've run, but I am in awe of what Barack Obama has done this year. Think about this... a black man with a "scary foreign" name from a lower-middle class upbringing is BEATING a rich, white, 3rd generation "war hero". To paraphrase Michelle Obama, I've never been more proud of our country. Simply amazing.

1. Yesterday he said,
If you will stand with me, I will never stop fighting for you!

2. I hope he continues, without getting mired in the mud
with them, because I expect big-time shit-slinging in the remaining weeks.

3. I was more proud of my country when we landed on the moon and beat the Soviet hockey team...
