This Is Obama's Best Speech Since Iowa

[THUNDER HANDS]

The pacing and tone and rhetoric is stunning.

Awesome speech. His second best of the campaign so far.

[Maat]

1. I agree!

It kind of started out slow, but he's really doing well now!

[smalll]

26. So Benito Obama can give a good speech. /nt

[chascarrillo]

27. I'm not alerting that because I want people to see that.

"So Benito Obama can give a good speech. /nt"

Shame.

[Blue_State_Elitist]

2. Same thing as always.

blah blah blah

[THUNDER HANDS]

3. nice name

appropriate.

[Blue_State_Elitist]

13. Proud about that name.

It used to be an insult reserved for the right, but apparently also now for the Obama "movement."

[BringBigDogBack]

4. I agree with you.

[polichick]

5. It's great, but the one after NH was great too. nt

[Sir Jeffrey]

6. No no no...

It's good, but that South Carolina speech was the best speech I have ever seen.

[moosen]

8. sounds like a bunch of cliches

[Cha]

18. Your venom is noted..

[moosen]

21. as is your wild eyed cultishness

[Cha]

24. Yeah right..you know nothing

except sour grapes.

[bicentennial_baby]

9. Yep

:bounce:

[K Gardner]

10. NH is still my favorite for inspiration, but this is the best for substance and Determination !!

[RevolutionStartsNow]

11. I am very, very impressed...

My daughter (16) is for Obama and is trying to turn me to him (I'm an Edwards supporter), and this speech is helping.

[romana]

12. His SC speech was much better /nt

[hulklogan]

16. 100% truth n/t

[VolcanoJen]

14. NH speech is still the best to me.

And to think... that was a concession speech!

And it spawned this, of course:

It was a creed written into the founding documents that declared the destiny of a nation... Yes, we can.

[Cha]

15. I can't wait until I can hear

and see it on youtube!! This killing me!

[tishaLA]

17. I like when he talks about community organizing

and I love that he just appropriated Maria Shriver's Hopi line--"we are the change we have been waiting for."

[Cha]

22. Good! I heard Maria say that

that at UCLA Sunday and I wrote it down 'cause I like it!

[writes3000]

19. "WE are the ones we have been waiting for"

I love, love, love that line. Perfect.

Who is this quote from again?

[tishaLA]

20. Maria Shriver said it the other day. it's a

Hopi, I think, poem.

[ronnykmarshall]

28. Yeah good ol' Maria.

Sorry. But I can't stand her ass.

[KittyWampus]

23. No, he forgot to promise a chicken in every pot.

:)

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

25. He Did Really Well.

I'm so proud of both of our candidates. I can't wait till the general election!
