Obama: "I Have Become a Symbol"

Dana Milbank of The Washington Post has a great piece on how Obama has gone from the "presumptive [Democratic] nominee to [the] presumptuous nominee."

Campaigns always wind up being about who can build the stronger narrative about the other candidate. This year, it seems, all Democrats are saying about John McCain is that he's old and "Bush III." Creative. They're swiping at him any way they can without really staying on message. Maybe that's why J-Mac has been gaining in this poll, and in this poll, and in this poll...

You folks have just made my day. I haven't laughed this hard since the time I traveled through the 57 states on vacation...

Milli Vanilli were a symbol of something too. Fraud and deceit in the music industry and awards programs.

I’m starting to relax a little bit as the BO campaign fires up the madness of Hubris and begin to recall the wisdom of old Euripides,

“Whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad”.

Let the fool enjoy his moment, it will be fleeting.

So Rush was right about libs...SYMBOLism over substance...and I haven't seen any liberal who does this better than hussein. He's all about photo-opps, one-liners, and struttin' his stuff y'all.

God, please tell me that America can't be stupid enough to elect this loser.

God did have something to say about this:

MAKE NO IDOLS

The middle finger is a symbol.
