Full Circle

I have said many times that I was convinced that I wanted Barack Obama to be our President when I heard him delivery his keynote address at the 2004 DNC. Four years later as he is on the verge making this a reality. The McCain - Palin ticket has teed up the ball for Obama to make his closing argument which is the same as his opening argument. There is no real America, no Pro America. There are no Red States, there are no Blue States. There is the United States of America.







Every since the dingbats on the right have started their attempt to divide Virginia into real and fake Virginia, establish the Pro America and anti America parts of the country, and discern who are the pro America and the anti America congress people. I have been waiting for Barack to answer them as has been so eloquently. As we wind into the final 10 days or so of this election I expect to hear his closing argument more and more forcefully. It is a point that is valid, appreciated, and needed even more at this time than it was 4 years ago.

What strikes me is the stark contrast between these speeches and the ones that McCain and Palin give. He is definitely what our country needs as a leader. Wow...only 10 or 11 days....

The beauty is that the McCain stepped into the trap yet again. This has been Obama's main message for 4 years now. McCain goes and makes an argument against unity and hope. It smells very much like the last flailing days of the Clinton campaign.

The great thing is Obama can close out the last 10 days hitting this message time and time again. McCain will be foreced to go negative and make himself look small in comparison.
