obama informercial gameday thread

I was hypnotized by his words. Must...vote...for... Obama. What a powerful speaker he is. Ina bizarre way, it kind of reminds me of stories my grandfather told me of a guy in Europe that had an amazing gift for public speaking.

That's a bit extreme, don't you think?

Maybe it's just me. The only way I can think to explain it is that my gut says McCain but my heart says Obama. How to choose?

You mentioned your heart and your gut, but what is your mind telling you? Not trying to come off as wise guy, but seriously, how does your personal situation and ideals fit into their views and policies? And I'm talking about which guy you would rather have a beer with or anything like that. Because both of them drink beer:)

That was a test of assumptions. My grandfather survived the London bombings and would tell us stories of another great European orator to which I was referrring to...Winston Churchill.

Being a vet myself I would rather have a beer with McCain. I bet he has some sick sea stories!

Well being someone from the inner city, I'd rather have one with Obama. I bet he has some interesting stories about organizing on the South Side of Chicago back in the day.

If you want some kick ass Naval sea stories, I'll supply you a few in exchange for a cold one:)

I might take you up on that~

My bad. I thought you were clearly referring to Sir Laurence Olivier

Damn. I thought he was talking about Benjamin Disraeli.

Personally I thought the 30 minute slot was very moving. I was watching it at the gym. I found it hard not to bust out in tears on the treadmill. :(

It is going to be moving. They are going to make him look like gold. He is just a common guy, great father, blah, blah, blah. They could even make Charles Manson look like a great candidate. They both scare me.
