The lovefest for Obama reminds me of the frenzy that surrounded the Bobby Kennedy campaign in 1968. RFK was headed for the White House that year until he was killed in L.A.

You wait. The song is coming, and they’ll be holding hands and swaying back and forth as they sing. These people are just that nuts.

(sung to kumbaya) O-bama, my Lord, O-bammmmmaaa. O-bama, my Lord, O-bammmmma. O-bama, my Lord, O-bammmmmaaa. Oh, Lo-ord, O-bammmmaaaaaaaa.

It reminds me of the Nuremberg rallies. Look at those people's faces - they'll do anything he says. Anything.

Oh right, drag down conservatives to the level of 23 year old idiots that want “fresh.”

For your information, Conservatives have been all over Condi and Powell the moment they started acting like boobs. To compare the liberals who want change, diverstiy and someone who “looks like them” to conservatives is idiotic.

We’re watching a real-world replay of the fascinating classic Peter Sellers film, “Being There.”

And if that reference means nothing to you, rent it.

The whole thing started making sense when I decided that what is happening is nobody cares what he would do if he was elected.

THEY ARE VOTING AGAINST HILLARY NOT FOR OBAMA

When you look at it like that it all makes sense

Well, I might be “idiotic”, but I spell “diversity” correctly ; )

I’m sorry to have sounded like I lump conservatives (I’m one myself-a Hunter/Thompson supporter like you)in with the Obama-loving airheads in the article. I didn’t mean that literally. However, you must admit there was a lot of “Condi ‘08” gushing going on among otherwise sensible folks who should have waited to see how she did at her current task before going nuts over her. It didn’t take long for me. I became disenchanted with her to an extent during her confirmation hearings. Same thing with Powell-lots of people projecting and indulging in wishful thinking before taking a cold look at the facts.

Condeleeza was a much better NSA than a SoS. The State Department is just too liberal and traitorous to be turned over in anything short of a purge.

I caught a little of his victory speech in Houston where he said his Grandfather fought with General Patton in Europe. Assuming that was World War Two and not a fistfight when Georgie was vacationing in France in the 1920s, we must assume Obama’s maternal grand pappy was white, but I’ve tried Googling to find out about this and it is near impossible to find anything on this man!

Anyone out there have any other info?

BTW from worldpress.org: "Obama's grandfather, Onyango Hussein, was one of the first Muslim converts in the village."

Wish that were true but if they're just voting against Hillary and not for Obama an aweful lot of them are flling convention centers to the rafters just to make it convincing. No, sadly I think it's the celebrity, POP culture, be part of the "in thing" that isdriving this. Casue it sure aint Obama's policies. I'm pretty sure they're going to start throwing their panties on stage next!

Both the men and women.
