Default The Obama Speech

Pretty damned good. I'm not sure the speech itself is going to be remembered, but the mere fact that it was delivered and delivered effectively will resonate for years. Make no mistake, this was a historic night for our country. We finally kicked in a door that needed kicking in.

Whether Obama wins or loses really won't matter in the grand scheme of things. We no longer have to wait and see "when" we are going to move forward. We can finally stop focusing on race or gender when it comes to thinking about a candidate for the top job. It's happened. That can never change.

It had more meat than any speech I've heard from him to this point. He met every expectation I had. Bravo to Obama. The Dems should feel pretty good moving on towards November. He cleared the first hurdle. He introduced himself to the country and pointed out his differences with McCain. Freddy
