Great Obama quote
"Well, look. You know, I actually knew that Russia was next to Alaska, as well. I saw it on a map."

-- Sen. Barack Obama, in an interview on This Week, mocking the McCain campaign's suggestion that Alaska's proximity to Russia gives Gov. Sarah Palin foreign-policy credentials.

2. Yeah, I thought that was awesome, too, especially the way he delivered it.
I love that little chuckle he does, too, when he's poking fun at the repukes.

3. The beauty of Obama is his ability
to speak both high-level rhetoric (which appeals to me) and comman-man rhetoric (which appeals to Joe six-pack). More importantly, he knows which to use in each situation. This is a big strength he has over Kerry in '04, and it has prevented the "elitist" label from sticking.
