6. Fareed Zakaria did a repeat (July?) with him today. It was wonderful watching

these two very smart men enjoying talking about foreign policy. It was as if noone else was in the room.

[Clio the Leo]

7. Wasn't it though?

I think I could sit and listen to Barack talk forever.

Not too many things hotter than a intellectual, introspective man .......... with GIANT ears. :)

[Clio the Leo]

8. On now East Coasters!

Or at least it will be, after this commercial.

[tilsammans]

9. Up now!

[Cha]

10. It's ON!

[firedupdem]

11. my kid just told me to stop smiling! LOL!!! n/t

[Cha]

12. Isn't it good! It's like our

own history of the campaign.

[firedupdem]

23. Yes! You put it into words! That's It.! n/t

[Clio the Leo]

16. ha ha, I catch myself doing that too...

... you dont notice it until your face starts to hurt. :)

[muntrv]

13. I laughed at the kool aid drinker who said that Obama is a Muslim, doesn't

know the national anthem. He said "I heard it from my friends."

[Clio the Leo]

17. Well that's ok 'cause *I* heard .........

.... that Barack WROTE the national anthem .... dont know if it's true or not .... read it in an email. :)

[gblady]

14. thanks so much, Clio.....

I need a pick me up tonight....
and Barack certainly fits the bill.

[Cha]

20. Isn't it just

about perfect right now?

[mucifer]

15. bringing up some scary memories where I thought Americans wouldn't vote Obama

:)

not so scary now!

[Clio the Leo]

21. I just had an epiphany...

.... and maybe this was already clear to everyone else. But we've talked about how he became this post-racial candidate ... how race was not an issue in this campaign. And in a traditional sense it wasn't thankfull.

But suddenly watching this talk of how so many thought he was a Muslim, or that he might be a terrorist sleeper.

It would have never been an issue if he were white. Sad.


BUT THATS OK 'CAUSE WE WON ANYWAY!!!! WOOOHOO!!!!!!! :bounce:

[Cha]

18. Creepy...palin

phase craps on our Convention!

[ErinBerin84]

27. I know! I hated that.

Heh...but I love when the 60 minutes voiceover later on goes to "By that time, McCain's campaign was struggling"..., and I think of the Palin/Couric interview, McCain's "suspending the campaign", etc.

[babylonsister]

19. Memories... Barack and Joe look good together! This is a fun

flashback. :thumbsup:

[Clio the Leo]

22. lol @ "I knew he was gonna win before HE did..."

And you Joe doesn't tell a lie...... Just look at this picture from one of the debates. Who is Joe looking at? :-)



And he has the look on his face like "I am so screwed."

If he only knew then what he knows now.

[Cha]

29. Thanks for pic(evidence), Clio..

Blast from the past..

[gblady]

31. interesting.....

that Barack is the only one waving to the crowd...

[firedupdem]

24. Yes! An Extra Christmas present! n/t

[Cha]

25. Excellent together!

I can't wait 'till they get started.

[rvablue]

26. Sorry, Clio, for double posting on you...turned it on and typed without

looking down the page.

But it is a nice montage, isn't it?

[Clio the Leo]

30. Oh sweetie do NOT apologize ....

.... I've done it a thousand times myself.

And I doubt very few of us mind THIS kind of redundant thread. ;)

[Cha]

28. David Plouffe nailed

it! They didn't have to spend hours a day deciding what message they needed.

[mucifer]

32. I know this is petty, but I enjoyed seeing the Obamas without secret service and

Michelle without makeup in everyday clothes. The oldest interview was the most interesting.

[Clio the Leo]

33. Yep, and you gotta love the kids' candor...

... "no daddy, cheese on toast isnt' really cooking." lol

[bevoette]

34. watching that tonight, it occurred to me...

when they are together, when he's talking about her to a third person with her right there, especially when he goes into teasing mode...he totally has major hots for wife, LOL - it's just written all over his face!

it's nice to see, it makes me grin - i don't recall it being that obvious in a first couple, at least in my lifetime :)
