How do you think Barack Obama did on Larry King last night?

On balance, I thought he handled the questions with poise and his usual eloquent confidence. I did think Barack was a little long-winded and repetitive with some of his responses; yet he was also given the unique opportunity to have the show all to himself. I wonder why other DEM candidates declined an opportunity to appear?

I really liked how he answered the question Larry tossed out early regarding if homosexuality was immoral? I also think Barack did a good job of staying above the negative frey when Larry brought Hillary up in reference to the new (anti-HRC) internet ad which the Obama camp had nothing to do with creating. Cool ad!

I think Barack will do wonderfully in debates with the few left standing as money and practical considerations narrow the field of DEM contenders.

Thanks for the transcript, though. I'll check it out.

with his answer, he said that it was no different than heterosexuality.

I watched on youtube. He certainly isn't as good with q&a as he is with speeches.

He could REALLY stand to stop saying "um" and "uh" so much. I learned how to do that in my highschool speech class, and I don't know why he hasn't done something about it.

Um and Uh is sin Number One.

While lashing out at things that are popular to lash out at.

had a name like a terrorist and sounds like Saddam Hussein? And the one that smokes? That media darling?

he's not black enough!
