It seems as if the majority of comments on this blog are angry at Obama getting all this attention. People will find someone to blame and right now it’s Bush. Obama is saying what people want to hear and this whole political scene is being played out as a movie–it’s serious yet enertaining. McCain is the antagonist and Obama the protagonist. In my opinion, Obama is not playing pure politics he’s using emotion and that’s why so many big politicians and celebrities are supporting him. No–Obama will not save the world– God has that power but it doesn’t hurt to have Buffets’, Kennedys’ or Spielbergs’ supporting you no matter what their agendas. The majority of working citizens don’t follow up with politics so they are not following up on all the details that hard core political enthusiasts use to qualify or disqualify the candidates. People are not concerned about what goes on in politics when they get home from work,0 they are more concerned about things that affect them in their every day lives and it’s relation to the people in their lives and families. For example, things like food, money,bills,work, play,health, relationships, enertainment,violence, morals, children, sex, school, dreams, goals, business or religion. Every day I’m dealing with a number of these issues but I seldom hear about politics. However, when I talk to people from all walks of life about it they have strong opinions, they say it’s important; then things turn silent or negative. What I have noticed is that they are more interested in talking about their family health or religion. Obama is doing somthing right and people are responding (even some media outlets)in huge numbers and that cannot be ignored. What it it? Why is everyone crazy about Obama? For the ones who don’t want him to win I say it’s mostly fear of the unknown. Conservative talk show host Neal Boortz admitted this when a caller asked why Boortz dislikes Obama. Talk show host Shawn Hannidy even stated that he will pack his bags and leave the country if Obama wins (he may well have to do that). Some people are predicting that McCain is going to win and the polls don’t mean a thing. Do you think that Sarah Pailin being found guilty of abusing her powers (when she had her ex- brother-in-law fired) will strike well with voters? What about the debate October 7th? When Obama spoke the reponses(lines) from independent undecided voters both women and men where mostly at the top. When Mccain spoke the reponses(lines) stayed mostly in the middle and even went down when McCain made negative comments. Whether you are in favor of Obama or against him he is creating electricity that’s why I believe he’s going to win. Its the little people who make a difference and Obama is talking to them without using political jargon.
