The Morning Obama Fawning
JOHN KASS PEOPLE!
Key Note Sneak Preview
Dear Barack Brigade,
Your enthusiasm and dedication is what convinced the Kerry-Edwards campaign that a skinny guy with a funny name from the South Side of Chicago could give the keynote address at the Democratic National Convention. It is your voice, your struggle, and your aspirations that have motivated me since day one, and more than anything I want my voice to be yours this Tuesday when I speak.
That is why I would like to give you, the Barack Brigade, the ones who have been there since we started this improbable journey months ago, the opportunity to hear what I am going to say first. Bear in mind that the full speech won’t be posted, and that last minute editing is bound to happen, but I want to give my most loyal supporters the chance to read what I’m going to say. Please be sure to post your thoughts, because I can’t be your voice if I don’t hear what you think.
So after 4:00 PM ET, on Tuesday, July 27th, be sure to visit www.obamablog.com for a SNEAK PREVIEW of excerpts from the speech. Hopefully this small gesture will help you begin to understand how grateful I am for all that you have done for me, and how much I value your opinions.
Thank you again from the bottom of my heart. You are the reason why we won the primary. You are the reason why I am the keynote speaker at the Democratic National Convention, and you are the reason why we will win in November.
Errr…umm…what?
The Hardblogger?
Ummm…what demo are they trying to hit now?
BTW, Dominic is from University City–where I currently reside and is a friend of Jeff Smith–my friend running for the 3rd CD here in Missouri.
Ryan Lizza Drools
And I like it–more Obama for you from the Atlantic Monthly.
I’m sure all of this is making candidates really want to get into this race.
Your Obama Porn for the Day
I’m stealing from Polis for the intro, but the Trib slobbers over him today.
Note, I’m all for metaphorical slobbering over Obama.
Something I Never Thought I’d Say
But GO JERRY SPRINGER!
Jerry is working to revitalize the Democratic Party in Ohio–probably the single most important state in this year’s election for President. I have my reservations about Springer running, but I think this is a good role for him within the Party. So go take a look. O
Another place to look for good blog coverage is the Moderate Voice–a great blog with thoughtful commentary.
Other highlights of the Blogads–anyone see the Manchurian Candidate? I’m curious on the reviews.
One Stop is an interesting site–take a look–especially if you are a student.
Melissa Bean is having a great week of press coverage.
Barack is gone for now. But still give. ;). Really for now I think the grassroots nature is great so let’s give a big hand to the guy who funded that ad, just because he thought it was important. That is how elections are changing and for the better.
Join Cross is back in the swing of things after the Ditka movement and a golf fundraiser.
American Forum gives you somewhere to go and talk more.
MSNBC TV coverage is making me want to make fun of Tweety Mathews. Man, I can’t wait for the fall SNL season.
I wanted to take a moment to highlight these ads because they really do help me pay for bandwidth which is going up every month. Please visit each sponsor and see what they have. Blogging needs to be sustainable and covering my costs is the first part of that.

Krause. Think what Jordan would do to get Obama elected then….
THE…WORST…CANDIDATE..EVER..FOR…CONGRESS
That’s an overstatement, but I had quite a time detailing a bad campaign here in St. Louis–for those who like trainwrecks–have at it over at Blog Saint Louis.
He may still win.
