I think Obama needs to have alot more speeches in front of both houses of Congress...
not only does he give kick ass speeches,

I get to look at Joe the whole time :)!!

wow - Obama!!! All the doubts I was having about his leadership skills have totally been washed away.
I heard Barbara Boxer being interviewed and she said that she ran into Obama after the speech and told him what a great speech it was.
His reply - Let's get it done!

What a great nite!

1. It really was!
I often feel like Obama really knows what he's doing and that he let the republicans go all right-wing crazy for weeks and then jumped in with the perfect speech at the perfect time. The glum looks on the republicans' faces told it all. "Curses Obama, you bested us again!!!!" It's like a great movie.

What a great contrast to see Joe sitting behind the president instead of Cheney. I couldn't help but notice how much happier Pelosi is in that seat compared to a year ago. She was practically beaming.

4. And I often wonder if he's doing the right thing, then he shows he is.
I think he's got a natural knack for politics, and what better "old timers" to surround himself with than Joe and Hillary? He's a smart one, that Obama. :)

5. Yep
He does seem to be a master at politics and it's driving the republicans nuts. If this wasn't all planned, then he has some incredible luck.

3. I'm finding that I don't give O enough credit for being politically savvy enough,
or strong enough, and then he generally comes out and kicks ass. He continues to impress me.

"You guys are kidding me, right?"
