--crickets--

[Tijeras_Slim]

Well, I guess there's hope for me then.

[dc-zoo]

That would be a big fat ZERO.

Obama created crickets?

[onyx]

He beat Alan Keyes.

[grobdriver]

But.... but he's a black man! Sorta.
And he's a Democrat!
Obama for President! Yeehaw!

[alarm rider]

No, I think that was Al Gore....

[Jhensy]

He did create composite characters in his autobiography, which is some kind of achievement.

[wideawake]

He made Harvard Law Review.

He wrote a book about his dad.

He has a better lifetime voting attendance record in the Senate than the last Democratic nominee.

[lilylangtree]

Given that he hasn't done anything, he's presenting himself as the alternative to the Hildebeast and hoping that he can pull off the Veep position in the '08 elections process.

[dc-zoo]

ABC radio news says "he's a fresh face". OMG!

[MadIvan]

Beware. He's already trying to turn his newness into a virtue; he can portrayed himself as a genuine break with the politics of the past.

Regards, Ivan

I DON'T KNOW WHY I LOVE HIM
(From the musical, "Barack Obama Superstar")
Tune: "I Don't Know How to Love Him"

I don't know why I love him,
My Barack, my Obama;
I've been charmed, yes really charmed,
By his trim physique, so slim and sleek--
I'm awed by his mystique.

I don't know why he's running,
I don't see any substance;
No real plan, flash in the pan,
And I've heard such empty words before
That when I close my eyes
He's just a bore.

But I like his face,
And I like his voice;
Makes my heartbeat race!
Makes me feel all moist!
I never thought I'd come to this:
Obama is my choice.

Don't you think it's rather shallow
I should vote for this fellow?
I'm the one who's always been
So pure, so pissed, so feminist;
I don't need men, oh no--
He scares me so.

But I like his face,
And I like his voice;
Makes my heartbeat race!
Makes me feel all moist!
I never thought I'd come to this:
Obama is my choice.

Yet, like in a romance novel,
I'm in love with a male model;
I've got to look! He signed my book!
My heart runs wild! I'll bear his child!
I want the world to know:
He's my "Big O"!
Obama, go!
I love you so!

Well, according to Cong. Bobby Rush (D-IL), Obama was "born to be president." So who are we to stand in the way of fate, or the will of the Almighty, or whatever? We'll just get run down.

[Obama's record in the Illinois senate:]

- Opposed the Defense of Marriage Act; would work to repeal it in the U.S. Senate; would not vote for any legislation that would restrict the ability of gays and lesbians to marry.
- Opposed the Born Alive Infant Protection Act four times in Illinois. A similar bill passed the U.S. Senate 98-0. The Born Alive bill would have prohibited a baby from being born alive but left to die according to the mother's wishes. Obama inexplicably opposed this bill not once, twice, or three times, but four times.
- Obama took almost $90,000 in bundled contributions from the Council for a Livable World. The council is a well-known anti-defense organization.
- Obama puts rigid ideology before what's best for the people of Illinois, and presumably he would do that as President as well. He has on several occasions made public his opposition to the NAFTA trade agreement and his belief that it must be negotiated. All the while thanks to NAFTA, Illinois exports $1.3 billion in agricultural goods to Canada.
- Obama refused to vote for a bill in the Illinois State Senate that would have increased penalties for drug traffickers.
- Obama voted against a bill that would have delivered the death penalty to gang members who murder first responders.
- Finally, just in case you thought it couldn't get any worse, Obama was the only member of the Illinois State Senate to vote against a bill that prohibited early release for sexual predators.

LOL. A dead squirrel would have beat Keyes.
