    Well at least he picked a good Brooks and Dunn song to close. Probably the highlight of the speech.

    The tenor of Obama's campaign has changed. I think he's going to play a lot more offense from now on.

    If by offense, you mean, "negative", then yes, you're right

    I was trying to figure out what that crap was. Awful. It makes me want a latte, though I am currently sipping a Harviestoun Ola Dubh No. 12.

    The Republicans are going to b**** and moan because they want the Democrats to be passive so they can wage a one sided war.

    It's a film score. I'm not quite sure but I believe it's from Armageddon. I could be wrong but I do know I've heard it before.

    EDIT: It might also be Remember the Titans.

    Well, they did raise him. If you did any research at all, you'd know that.

    And T_J; a substantial portion of his book is devoted to his life in Indonesia with Lolo Soetoro. Lolo was a man in his life for a very brief period of time, a time that most of us struggle to remember with crystal clarity. I don't acknowledge my step parents as being major formative forces in my life, as such, I would not put them in my video either. Get with the program.
