For everyone, including myself, who was worried about the Primaries lasting so long

I think it was to Obama's advantage to have that Primary race last almost into summer like it did.

The thing is, so many millions of voters, especially in the battleground states, got to know him intimately because of all the extra time he had to spend campaigning in those states to win the Primary. The more the people got to know him, the more they must have been impressed with him, and I think some of that was reflected last night with the way he changed red into blue. That, and his perfect campaign he ran in the GE, of course.

1. A lot of the GOP attacks were old news by the GE too. We have to thank the

Clinton campaign for that. I never thought I would, but I do now. Now that Hillary came out and worked her butt off for Barack and even Bill
set aside his ego and helped.

Thank you, Hill and Bill! :patriot:
