Obama Gets Fired Up
Barack Obama is finally going hard, specifically at this Jefferson Jackson dinner in Iowa, where he gave an extremely well-recieved speech. It’s about damn time…
As Clinton trudged through a week of momentum-sapping process stories — her supposed failure to leave a tip, the presence of a planted question in a town hall — Obama appeared to gain energy. His speech at the dinner was the performance of a politician, not a rock star. But he has found his voice.

It may not be too late in Iowa. This is usually when the front runner starts to take hits and another candidate breaks out. A la Dean and Kerry. Obama is taking advantage of his position. He should make sure not to look like Edwards though. Everytime someone asks him a question he answers it by saying something negative about Hillary. If you read the political blogs it’s backfiring on Edwards - even amongst his supporters. They thinks it’s petty and shows that he can’t shake that ambulance chaser gene of his. Obama needs to stay away from that, too.
That IS hurting Edwards. Obama and Edwards are the two that I liked as people before. Once the petty BS starts, I start to dislike all of them. I know it’s not how things are but this is how they should be: you win me over to your view by telling me them, not trashing the other candidates. I don’t like any of the candidates. Well, Fred Thompson reminds me of my great uncle…
