3. If you are lucky
an opportunity to elect a person like Obama comes once in a lifetime.
I hope the people of Indiana recognize their chance to be a part of what's to come.

6. Good presentation;
However, I would have liked to seen and heard the questions from the press. Would they have consisted of 'topic' questions or MOTS bullshit?

7. He needs to do more direct linking of McCain/Bush/Clinton
The race has gone on too long and he's running into the "general election season." If she's still in the race Obama has to put her in the same company as the rest of his competition and tie them to the failed policies of BushCo.

8. MSNBC said Clinton gave speech today on policy, Obama had a beer & played basketball.
Real fair coverage there.

9. Yeowch! Those gloves have been ripped off!
This may be the most impressive I've ever seen Obama.

I really appreciate how he laid it out, cited sources, gave the facts in a way that didn't get all jumbled in my tiny brain.

Again, VERY impressive!

I know I'm backing the best candidate we have.

10. Very Presidential!
Edited on Fri May-02-08 02:59 PM by Triana
EDIT: I had to listen again because there was noise around me.

Second listen reaction: WOW. This man is NOT fooling around. VERY stern and VERY to the POINT.

And yea, VERY PRESIDENTIAL!

12. Obama is good at pointing out the problems this country
is saddled with but I have yet to hear him outline any plans he has for solving these problems.

15. Excellent rebuttal
of this ridiculous gas tax holiday idea being touted by McCain & Clinton

If we're lucky people will listen to a serious minded message like this (from Obama) and quit falling for the quick-fix, no-real-help ideas coming from these two (Clinton & McCain).

Here's to the end of sound-bite politics

19. "It's time to stop with the political stunts, and start offering some real solutions"
You could condense that statement and put it on a bumper sticker. Perfect.
