1. Yep--he's run the three-and-a-half-minute mile
Edited on Tue Feb-05-08 11:42 PM by rocknation
It took forever for someone who break the four-minute mile because it was deemed "impossible." But once someone actually DID do it, more people did it at a faster rate simply because that psychological barrier was gone--it wasn't impossible anymore.

No matter what, Obama gets the moral victory--he's shown he can win in states and through demographics that weren't supposed to be possible for him. It is now official that Iowa wasn't a fluke. And that leaves the sky wide open for him.

6. Took on the Clinton machine & has won ...
the delegate count is almost a dead heat, and that was with a nominating calendar that was custom-made for Queen Hillary. I look forward to seeing Senator Obama winning many of the remaining states, and when John Edwards looks into his heart, and realizes that only Senator Obama shares his distate for the illegal war & occupation of !Iraq, that he will commit his delegates to the NEXT PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES, BARAK OBAMA!

7. I hope that he gets more votes, but we all know that the
closeness of the returns is a victory in and of itself.
