Also the whole Jeremiah Wright is still in the back of my mind. I still don't think that we have seen the last of that. He did only seemed to do it during the last couple of minutes of his speech.
I will also say that I wouldn't have a problem with a black President or VP. I think that Condi Rice could be an excellent runing mate for Mccain.
But as far as Oboma goes I just don't think he has any substance, or maybe he is saving all the details for late in the game. But it seemed to me that John Kerry had more detailed plans and he still ended up with the short end of the stick.

I like your take. Very honest!
I think he knows, just like all candidates, that being realistic doesnt get you elected. Being "realistic" would require him to say "look, its going to take us at least four years to get us out of this mess that our economy is in".
Certainly not inspiring.
