Brilliant, at least from reading the transcript. I would say that he has no peer when it comes to effective communication. I don't agree with his politics, but the man can stir the crowd. OBama Speech
I'll have to give him that. But I think there are issues here that will haunt him for awhile, and maybe even give Hillary the nomination.
I don't know if it will give Hillary the nomination but it will go a long way to giving McCain the presidency.
The Rasmussen poll, latest one on Mar 23 has McCain leading by 9 points nationally. It seems many were less than impressed when Obama equated Geraldine Ferraro's coment that being black helped him with his pastor's venomous comments. He also threw his grandmother under the bus when he called her a "typical white woman" for being afraid of some blacks. When you add all this up together with his refusal to wear the flag on his lapel, first denying that he heard Wright's controversial remarks then admitting that he did when no one believed him. This, I believe helps McCain substatially.
