Most courageous speech I've ever heard a political figure make, especially during a tight campaign when most would play it "safe". Oh, and the speech?

Sure, he's not perfect....anybody looking for perfection in a politician should just go ahead and sign up for serious counseling, anyway...but he has the most potential of any political figure in my lifetime for doing some Very Good Things if he can get into office. And, unlike many politicians, including his machiavellian opponent, I actually feel like Obama has his heart in the right place. Let's just hope Clinton doesn't totally screw everything up...but I'm afraid her carpet-bombing campaign is working with lots of Americans, who, after all, were gullible enough to (sorta-kinda) elect and, even worse, re-elect (again, sorta-kinda) GWB. Never put it past the majority of Americans to fuck up. Again, he has my vote.
