"Using a “feeling thermometer” rating scale, Gallup recently tested the public images of several of the Republican and Democratic candidates running for president in their respective parties. Of these, only one — Barack Obama — stirs up warm feelings in a majority of Americans. "
"'It's unfortunate that Sen. Obama is abandoning the politics of hope for the politics of attack.'"
"Mr. Obama has racked up a slew of converts from the Clinton camp, especially among a younger crowd of ex-Clintonites who say they want a fresher approach to new challenges than those offered by Mrs. Clinton. Many of these advisers, like Mr. Obama himself, are in their 40s. (Mrs. Clinton is 59 years old)."
"she's partial to Obama - for a reason most analysts had considered a potentially disqualifying handicap: the first-term Illinois senator's lack of experience. 'He's fresh,' she said. "
"In a statement on Saturday, Mr. Obama said he believed that the calendar put forth by the national committee was “in the best interests of our party and our nation.” At the same time, though, the pledge allows him to focus on a handful of states in an effort to gain ground on Mrs. Clinton, the presumed front-runner."
Catch me if you can, O!
"TED NUGENT, MUSICIAN: I was in Chicago last week. I was in Chicago. I said, 'Hey, Obama! You might want to suck on one of these, you punk!' Obama, he's a piece of (expletive deleted), and I told him to suck on my machine gun. Let's hear it for him! And then I was in New York. I said, 'Hey, Hillary! You might want to ride one of these into the sunset, you worthless (expletive deleted)."
"Will Obama's shift in strategy work? Will his more muscular messages convince the undecided that . . . innocence . . . is no less valuable than experience, it is just a less distorted view of the world?"
I have no idea what that means, but I wouldn't mind a few muscular messages from the O-Man.
Viva Hillary! Viva Barack!
That's apparently the feeling of Cuban leader Fidel Castro, who predicted in a newspaper column Tuesday that a one-two punch of that duo, led by the New York senator, would easily land in the White House.
"Today, talk is about the seemingly invincible ticket that might be created with Hillary for President and Obama for vice president," Castro wrote in a piece about U.S. presidents in the Communist Party paper, Granma.
"In the richest nation on Earth, it is a moral outrage that one in ten American families live in poverty and 47 million Americans do not have health care. "
Sure O, just go and steal my big issue. The man knows how to hurt me.
GRRRRRRRRRRRR! We'll just see how well she manages her family when her man runs off with me.
"When the Senator wrapped up his speech and the pastor thanked him for attending, Barack took the microphone and said, 'This church was the site of an extreme makeover. What we need now is an extreme makeover in Washington.'"
Does he mean me?
“This is a powerful partnership,”
I found this little piece of innuendo in the archives; somehow the press was picking up on the vibe even before I was.
"The campaign for Democrat Barack Obama will roll out 'Women for Obama' leaders in 50 Iowa counties today."
O, you and I know, there's only one true Woman for Obama. XXXOOO
"Amber Lee Ettinger, the star of the online video that has been viewed well over three million times... may be leaning towards... Hillary Clinton"
Talk about an emotional rollercoaster! I've wanted this girl's head on a platter for months . . . but I sure could use help licking envelopes.
BarackObama.com | Obama steps on Hillary's turf: "Obama's visit to New York came just three days after the former first lady scored a huge coup in Obama's political backyard, when she recruited a member of one of Chicago's wealthiest families to aid her bid for the White House."
I'm in his backyard and he's in my turf? What are they implying. Is it so obvious that O and I were meant to be. Even the media is picking up on the love vibes. It's fate.

I had to be a "nurse for a day" for some sick person, it was totally gross. I was really gagging when I got a great idea. I just pretended that it was my sweet O-Man in that bed. That made the day go faster.
"Obama promises to bring change to a political system that most voters think is broken."
But can O bring a change to my heart: Also broken.
"I've been in public office longer than Hillary Clinton has," he said Monday, counting his seven years in the state Senate and not counting Clinton's three decades in public life with her husband."
Three decades of hell, that has to count for something. O, if only you knew.
BarackObama.com: “We can change the political map,” Barack said, and “engage Americans in ways they’ve never been engaged before.”
Engage me, O, engage me.
