Thanks for the link. This election, at least for a Democratic nominee has had me puzzled for awhile. I've been back and forth so many times I couldn't really count.
Olbermann has an interesting rhetoric for a news anchor especially since I remember him being a sportscaster. I wasn't so blatantly offended (as maybe you and others were) by his monologue, though. I'm just kind of bewildered by the people Hillary surrounds herself with. She has made even wrong move in the book whether it be presenting herself or others representing her. Wanda Skyes was on Leno a couple of weeks ago and talked about it. I actually transcribed part of the interview: "I blame the people who're running her (Hilary's) campaign. Which Hilary is going to show up? I really don't think we've seen Hilary... Really, she should've been a shoe-in when you look at it, right? Then I don't know... she was listening to everybody. The last debate was so sad... someone saw Saturday Night Live, so she was referring to the sketch. Come on, man. And I'm worried,

I agree wholeheartedly (I am an Obama supporter 100%). I think that you might have misinterpreted "all fired up" for a negative thing rather than a positive thing.
We have had Clintons and Bushes in the office for far too long, and I think to actually achieve this idea of Change that is top priority in both campaigns we need to see what someone new will do in office. My problem with Hillary from the start was the fact that she appeared to be riding on the coattails of her husband and passing his experience off as her own. I think it says a lot more for Obama that he's made it this far without having to really attach himself to someone else. Your point about "focus" is really something I love about Obama. I think he can solve problems and find solutions in a graceful, intelligent, and well planned manner. His words are certainly deliberate, I can't imagine him acting any other way

Haha, I did misinterpret. I thought Olbermann seems rather angry when delivering that monlogue, so it was to get you "fired up" in the sense that you dislike Hillary and her campaign, but I suppose it worked in the sense that you're referring to -- support Obama
