I have to say, that I like Obama.
He carries himself with a dignity that is lost in Washington a lot of the time. He seems very forthright and says what he means but not in a way that people would find offensive. He is one of the most intelligent and articulate politicians that I have ever seen. He will make a fine senator. For that matter he will make a fine president. He is certainly more dignified than his so called opponenet, who the only thing productive that he ever did was get into a mosh pit.

Let's hear it for Senator Obama!!!!:toast:

5. Keyes cares more about abortionists than terrorists
From what I hear so far, that is the only issue he is talking about.

6. I was impressed.... I have not been impressed with jackson or sharpton
although I did like sharptons's talk at convention. Obama is a man for all people. This will go far across all cultural lines, IMHO

10. Obama
His convention speech was the high point of my week. Everytime I hear him talk I like him even more. Watching him and Keyes on This Week was a hilarious contrast. Obama was dignified, articulate, and charismatic. Keyes was bombastic, hackish, and moronic (his analogy of abortion to slavery was a true low point). Its hilarious that Keyes is the Repukes best chance at derailing Obama's train to the White House.
