When Obama said today "we don't need that, we just need to vote" |
|
I thought that was great...Apparently, some people were either booing or saying things about McBush at Obama's rally earlier today in Toledo, & his response was a calm, cool, & collective
"we don't need that, we just need to vote"....
He's absolutely right..

We were booing McCain. I couldn't even hear what he said at the end because of the cheering.

5. In other words- he handled it smoothly! |
|
Unlike McCain, Obama was able to appeal to the better angels of his crowd...

7. That's how a leader handles shit from his supporters he doesn't need. |
|
If someone actually yelled "kill him!" about McCain at an Obama event, I think he'd get really angry.
McCain & Palin egg them on.

9. That's what we call "class." I'm so looking forward to hearing him |
|
speak as my president. Especially after eight years of cringing in disbelief at lying moron bush.

12. Obama can control his crowd |
|
McCain tells his "supporters" to be respectful, they boo HIM.
Obama tells his supporters to stop booing, and they do.
Which one is the true leader? :)

13. I was very proud of Obama for saying that |
|
It emphasized the difference between his type of leadership and the facade of leadership that we'd get from McCain/Palin.
Unfortunately, as on the right, there are many on the left who want to see "blood in the streets". Hopefully Obama will continue to discourage that kind of thinking. Democrats will be a huge success in the coming years if they can show that they're able to work with others.
