Obama's race speech 
Modified By saucier  on 3/19/2008 9:03:53 AM)

What's the better metaphor for the loss of white voters on the fence?  "Horrible sucking sound" or "crickets"?

Here is an interesting take http://www.slate.com/id/2186845/

My own $0.02 - unfortunately, a lot of the nuance in the speech is going to get lost in translation - I think it would have been much better for him to make it in the evening when more people had a chance to hear it first hand.  I doubt most people will pick up some of the "contradictions" contained in Kaus' blog, but I am sure the right will pound on it all the way to November.

Re: Obama's race speech 

Just in case you didn't already know, some of the best CSPAN speeches and pro-Democrat info is on TV after midnight.  I have seen things on at 2 a.m. that should be on the 5 or 6pm news, on all channels.
