Don't you just want to CRY?????
Edited on Mon Oct-27-08 09:11 PM by PretzelWarrior
Here's a link to a video I first saw in January of this year or thereabouts.

this is it, folks. you can feel it. it is there in front of you. grab it. take it. we are the change we have been waiting for. Obama is merely the one showing the way.

TAKE YOUR COUNTRY BACK!

The reason I repost it (yes, probably been posted a few scores of times before) is I remember some non-Obama supporters saying it was like a programming message to a cult following...and I wanted them to see it in new light.

1. I love this one too
I just want this nightmare to be over. I shook the man's hand. He is just an amazing person perfect for our times

Remember the sorryeverybody site in 2004? Remember how devastated we felt? Not just us progressives in the USA, but an entire world will exhale a giant sigh of relief that we now have a chance again to go in a positive direction for the other 99.9% of humanity left in a ditch by the Bush admin.

5. yes, and I was so moved back then.
he has inspired me and millions of others to see the better part of ourselves and give hope one more try.

When I met him and later with 80,000 others in Portland rally....I had cause for GREAT hope. Now....we are so close to the finish line it is hard not to get emotional--as emotional as I got when Air America first started broadcasting what we were all feeling but no one in the media was saying. As emotional as I got when Bush and his crooks suddenly faced accountability after the November elections of 2006.

We must keep working hard...but revel in the possibility and sheer joy of it all on November 5.

7. I loved that as well. not least because I love U2.
Yes We Can is pretty good.

I want a whole video of all the many awesome goosebump-inducing moments of this grand campaign.

10. Don't we all? Here's some I like
I was looking at some of my faves the other night. Here's a commercial Team Obama had out a year ago. It's quite the prescient metaphor of what we've seen Obama do to the politics-as-usual scenario this year:

My all-time favorite is still this one from the Texas primary; I just love the entire spectrum of Americans coming together for Obama (and I really like the music they used, too):

8. Wow. January. I remember being afraid to hope.
I thought Hillary's machine would steamroll us ...

Glad to have been wrong. :bounce:

9. oh yeah! Hillary and Bill are coming around big time
I will stay charitable in my comments. You could say her huge machine and tough primary opposition to Obama helped way more than it left wounds. We'll see once the ground game kicks in even more than it is already.

ELECTION DAY! LAST 48 hours November3 and 4 the most critical.
