2. As long as he doesn't have a cigarette in hand...
he looks exhausted as he should be.

3. I can't imagine how exhausted he must be.
And yet he always comes back the next day, or even the next minute, full of energy. Impressive.

5. I keep thinking that, too. He's been running all-out for nearly 2 years.
Just his primary race with Hillary was more exhausting and challenging than most presidential elections have been. How many debates? 23? 25? And then think of how many speeches he's given. How many interviews. How many hands he's shaken. How many nights he's stayed up late planning for tomorrow.

McCain had many months off after he won the Republican primary. Time to sit on his duff. And the Republican debates were never close to the grueling ordeal the Dem debates were.

I'm going to be so glad when this is over. Just knowing that Obama will be able to finally take a break will actually make me feel better.

4. I remember this picture.
It's from several months ago, I think, and he was waiting to be introduced before he spoke. I don't remember at all where it was.
