GO BARACK

Ok...even though Hillary didn't concede (I think she shot herself in the foot tonight, but will still get the VP spot), Obama clinched up the nomination. Crazy to think that 50 years ago segregation was still going on in the South. Now, after watching Obama speak tonight...I think America will not only finally get a minority president, but will finally start to move toward the future instead of living in the past.

Comparing the two speeches today (Obama and McCain), I can say with great confidence that McCain is going to get his ass kicked in the general election. First off, McCain drew a crowd that was comparable to one of my indoor soccer games. Obama drew 20,000 people. McCain sounded awkward...looked old...and blatantly used "fear" as his reason to vote for him. Obama sounded presidential...carried with him energy...and knows that America needs to move forward to keep up with the world of the 21st Century. Damn...for someone who isn't exactly patriotic, Obama almost made me want to say the Pledge of Allegiance (sorry...it was just a second).
