What really bugged me the most was yesterday when reporters were trying to ask Obama questions about all this and he blew them off by saying he would cover everything in today’s speech and saying if he answered in advance than they wouldn’t come to his speech. THAT showed me that this was a totally crafted thing and very insincere, he won’t take questions because when put on the spot he stutters and stammers and looks so NOT believable, but he will give a speech because HE is in control of that. Did he even take questions today after the speech? If you notice when he is put in the hot seat he is not very good at being believable. He only shines in speeches, but any good orator can make anything sound good-—where is the question and answer time so he can be grilled? So the American people can see how he really feels and not mask himself behind fancy rhetoric. Yes his minister is very racist, but NOT only that! He is also against America and THAT is huge especially in a time of war with radicals. I don’t trust this man and our country will be in grave danger if he’s elected, however, no matter how the MSM and other libs want to spin this, the average American won’t be fooled by today’s speech, it was just more empty words crafted to save his falling campaign. Wait until the debates, he will be crushed by McCain.
I can’t see real Americans (non liberal variety) saying, oh Barack explained it, he has my vote again....I think McCain will win this in the end. I know many of you including myself would rather have had someone else representing the Replublican party in this election but when you look at what could happen to our troops and this country in general with either dim as POTUS, McCain is definitely who I would rather have as our Commander In Chief.
Obama's transformative and inspiring speech this morning brought tears to my eyes. I feel like this will go down in history not only as the turning point in the campaign, but in the whole of our country.
And
I hope so. That speech was amazing. I was listening on the radio via The Stephanie Miller Show. After the speech, a girl called in talking about how her whole life she wondered what it would be like to be there when MLK, JFK, or RFK spoke and now she knows. I was at my desk, trying not to cry.
