Obamamania

Currently, I am as high as this Robbie Madison's jump for Barack Obama's big electoral victory in Iowa last night.

When asked about Obama over the past year, I have told everyone that he has "it." Bill Clinton had it, Reagan had it and JFK had it too. I am unable to come up with any other detailed description of his political phenomenon.

Obama possesses the way to make people believe in something or someone again and this country desperately needs this characteristic right now.

The race is far from over and beating the Clinton democratic machine is more formidable than most people realize but the voters of this country appear more energized than I have ever seen in my life for serious change of the status quo.

The internal GOP is in utter disarray with their fragile coalition of libertarians/Reagan policy wonks/Wall St types/Evangelicals on serious meltdown. Just turn on Fox news and watch their pundits foam at the mouth over Huckabee. It is high entertainment for this "troop hating commie liberal."

The Republican Party continues to stand behind the tremendously unpopular policies of George Bush and their brand has suffered immensely for it. Independents, who decide elections in this country, will not be breaking their way any time soon on election day.

A Blue tidal wave is coming in November and I hope Obama is riding on top of it.

KU wins the Orange bowl and an African American wins a statewide electoral contest in white bread Iowa, Crazy Way to start 2008.

Watch Obama's magical goose bump speech from last night.
