Reply #23: "Hope" means "Vision" [View All]

[RBInMaine]

Listen to what he says as he addresses this question about his conception of "hope" directly. He isn't talking merely about sitting around and wanting something to happen. He is talking about envisioning something, then acting on it to turn the "hope" into reality. This guy has been my second choice for awhile with Edwards as my first choice, but his momentum is going to be difficult to stop. If he sweeps up these early primary states, then I think the others are done. NO candidated can be all things to all people. My "hope" and financial ACTION has been with Edwards thus far. But if Edwards doesn't win or at least place second in NH, he's finished right there. If Obama sweeps Hillary in NH, SC, and NV, I think you can stick a fork in her too. Then we better unite like hell around Obama because the RePUKElicans aren't going down without a fight. This Obama guy may well be shaping up to be a bonafide political phenomenon, even moreso than Clinton #1, equally as much as JFK and RFK. If he becomes the nominee, we'll have someone we can unite well around just as all those D's, I's, and even some R's did in Iowa, and someone we can make incredible history with. (And just imagine an Obama/Edwards ticket?? You never know.) Gonna be fun as hell to watch no matter what happens.
