I'd vote for him if he promised to be executed by firing squad if he couldn't come through with at least 25% of the promises he made in that speech.

If one were to listen without prejudice or preconceived opinion based on policy or party, one would have to agree that he is a pretty inspirational orator. Or maybe it just seems that way because of what we have had to listen to for the last eight years.
Being a great orator does not mean you will be a great president.

Funny

Interesting that the knocks against the guy before this speech was that he never defined what type of changes that he wants to make.

Now that he lists his changes, he is overpromising.

LOL. let the spin begin.

No kidding. I took Public Speaking in college and made A's on every speech I gave, but only made a C in the class because I never turned in a written outline. Never had much of an idea what was gonna come out of my mouth until I started talking. I have the gift of gab and bullsh*t...just like most politicians.

Whoever is selling kleenex at Invesco is banking.

Have you considered a career in Congress?:D

trifecta124 08-28-2008 10:31 PM
I bet Obama voted for Bush in 2004....I don't think he could have voted for Kerry.

Dude..if the 18 people held at gunpoint in Ohio had voted, he'd be Prez now

Well if he loses the election, I am sure he will do very well selling used cars.

That would be the optimistic know-it-all butt hole.
