One More Weekend

Published by Gus under Primary Campaign 08

Its been a long, LONG campaign. Every four years it seems to start earlier. I mean, Clinton announced her “listening tour” in January of 2007. Heck, remember all the pundits though the election wouldbe CLinton v. Giulini 911? Obama announced I believe in February 2007. But the outcome is looking mighty rosy. I’d rather be in Obama’s position right now than McCain’s, that’s for sure. I was playing around with the electoral map at http://www.270towin.com and found that even were Obama to lose PA,OH and FL, he could still win by taking VA, IA, NV, NM, and CO, all of which he seems poised to take. I think PA will be a little closer than 10 point gap some polls show, but I think Obama will win.

 

I did enjoy the 30 minute ad he put on tv Wednesday, very well done. Frankly, his whole campaign has been impeccably run, it really has been the “no drama” campaign. Same slogan focus and strategy he’s had from the day he announced, its really amazing. I’ll have to post later on the Palin choice that apparently has doomed McCain. (Just ask yourself: can I see this woman as President of the United States?)

 

This video was very touching, of Charles, a really old black guy talking about FDR and meeting Obama:
