He should do that more often!

13. I'm pretty sure that's part of his new stump.
There was an article discussing something about him getting back to the roots of his campaign, and re-introducing himself to the American people.

4. Closing song: Land of Hope and Dreams (Springsteen)
Edited on Fri May-02-08 09:41 PM by godai
Grab your ticket and your suitcase
Thunder's rolling down the tracks
You don't know where you're goin'
But you know you won't be back
Darlin' if you're weary
Lay your head upon my chest
We'll take what we can carry
And we'll leave the rest

Big Wheels rolling through fields
Where sunlight streams
Meet me in a land of hope and dreams

I will provide for you
And I'll stand by your side
You'll need a good companion for
This part of the ride
Leave behind your sorrows
Let this day be the last
Tomorrow there'll be sunshine
And all this darkness past

Big wheels roll through fields
Where sunlight streams
Meet me in a land of hope and dreams

This train
Carries saints and sinners
This train
Carries losers and winners
This Train
Carries whores and gamblers
This Train
Carries lost souls
This Train
Dreams will not be thwarted
This Train
Faith will be rewarded
This Train
Hear the steel wheels singin'
This Train
Bells of freedom ringin'
This Train
Carries broken-hearted
This Train
Thieves and sweet souls departed
This Train
Carries fools and kings
This Train
All aboard

This Train
Dreams will not be thwarted
This Train
Faith will be rewarded
This Train
Hear the steel wheels singin'
This Train
Bells of freedom ringin'

17. You deny that he has lived the American dream?
Or just that having him as president is a dream?

6. Interesting that Hillary and the Republicans/media are trying to destroy him then
Certainly sums up this WHOLE ELECTION in a nutshell.

I'm sure they'll replay it tonight - they usually do reruns.

15. I hope soon.
Watched it live. He brought down the house. At the end they were playing the song "Here I am baby..signed, sealed, delivered....I'M YOURS!!!

When the music stopped the crowd was screaming "GOBAMA"

27. Oh come on. You're so partisan you can't acknowledge a great speech?
Hillary is a kick ass debater and as an Obama supporter I will readily admit that.
