I actually had goose bumps listening to him. If we do not elect this amazing human as our president, then I just do not believe in this country any more. What can i say.

[TexasLady]

4. She did before, and maybe still is on Cspan?

not sure, Im watching crappie ol Faux, with the crappier lighting.

[Muttocracy]

6. They both spoke earlier; C-Span is on delay.

My internet went out during Obama during the TV station live feeds, so I'm glad it came on just in time for Obama!

[TexasLady]

[CherokeeDem]

He was so thoughtful on MTP this morning and now the passion is loose. We need him.

[peoli]

[powergirl]

9. Darn straight he is - Can one of you good Obama supporters do me a favor

I'm out of posts. Can you post this awesome tidbit for me? It's some good news and shows Obama rebounding HUGE against Clinton.

From CBS/NY Times:

Obama 50, Clinton 38
Obama’s margin has grown four points since last week. Most respondents also said the Rev. Wright issue has not hurt their opinion of Obama.

However, Democrats split on whether Obama or Clinton would be a stronger opponent against McCain. Obama had a strong lead three months ago.

Among all voters: Obama 51, McCain 40; Clinton 53, McCain 41
Margin of error: 4-6 points. Dates conducted: May 1-3

10. Thanks, just put it on C-Span now

[MadBadger]

13. Great speech, but nothing like yesterday

It also helped that it was an amazing crowd for him yesterday.

[jenmito]

17. I agree. It also looks like his teleprompter was broken. He's looking down too much...

although he DID get a few powerful lines going on. For Hillary, they chanted her name a few times.

[TeamJordan23]

19. Another great speech. Is on CNN and Fox News also. nm

[DMorgan]

21. I am loving it, too!

Thanks!

This is real great !

23. OBAMA: "Where is that America today?"

His grandfather went to college on GI bill. His father-in-law was a water filtration plant worker for the city. Had MS in his early thirties and already using a walker by age 40. Yet he never missed work, and was proud to see his kids graduate from the best schools in the country.
