Barack...Barack....he's our man, if he can't do it.....GREAT! No, that wasn't the chant today in Germany as Obama READ one hell of a speech. Oh yeah, "Mister Teleprompter" is great at reading a speech....Zero mistakes. But what did he really say? Actually, nothing but boilerplate drivel. Awwww.... what an unadulterated let-down.
The reason he gave an empty speech should not be a surprise to anyone who has been paying attention. Obama isn't a deep guy who's brimming with intellectual profoundity. He talks in baseless platitudes that sound good to people who are either stupid or ignorant. "We want change" he will say to people but he never says what KIND of change. Does he mean change in our pockets or does he mean something more substantive that should really worry us? :)~
My prediction is this: BARACK OBAMA IS GOING TO GET BEAT LIKE A DRUM THIS NOVEMBER for a variety of reasons. Not the least of which is that he's an inexperienced "back bencher" who couldn't articulate a cogent foreign affairs stance even if his life depended on it. Just wait until the debates and you are going see Bambi caught in the headlights of McCain's "straight talk express"! Early polling may show him in the lead but who are pollsters talking to? Are they standing outside a Piggly Wiggly in podunk USA or are they in front of the post office in downtown Detroit? Are they calling home phones or cell phones? I haven't had a home phone line in 5 years. Something to think about folks, when you hear endless polling data which is after all, meant to shape your thinking NOT report it.
Barack Obama: Europe's favourite but is he ours? I think not. I'll go one step farther and spill ALL the Meat and Taters folks. I see Obama headed for a George McGovern-style (1972) defeat with victories only in Illinois, California and my former homestate of Massachusetts. (Big surprise on that last one!)
