I have seen the future and his name is Barack Obama

Watching Barack Obama work his magic at the podium of the Democratic Convention on Tuesday night was like watching a young Arthur pull the sword from the stone. He was a brilliant and perfect capstone to Bill Clinton's work.

I hope people are as captivated by their messages as they are with their charisma. What they are saying makes a great deal of sense. After three and a half years of "Bring it On," snarling resistance to all transparent government, scripted press conferences in which nothing is said, nasty attacks on patriotism for asking simple questions and leaders who use one finger to mark their place in the bible while they pull the trigger with the other...we got to see what real patriotism sounds and looks like.
