    It got a little too preachy for me. He sounds like he is trying to be Martin Luther King Jr.

    When the crowd started chanting, it kind of reminded me of films I have seen of rallies from the late 1930's and early 1940's.

    When all is said and done, Obama is a politician. His acceptance speech was vanilla. Everything he says between now and January will be vanilla. That is just what politicians do.

    You and I have been reminded of the same thing.

    Obama's cult of personality is downright scary.
    If we were as industrious to become good as to make ourselves great, we should become really great by being good, and the number of valuable men would be much increased; but it is a grand mistake to think of being great without goodness; and i pronounce it as certain that there was never yet a truly great man that was not at the same time truly virtuous." - Ben Franklin

    Havent seen any bitterness.

    And of course we have sour grapes and negative viewpoints. We are about to see the nation we love destroyed, possibly past the point of no return.

    The Supreme Court may be destroyed for generations. The Coal industry may be destroyed. Union thugs will be allowed to pressure people to unionize. Drilling won't happen. Illegals will likely get amnesty. And we are all in for a major tax hike.

    What the hell do we have to be upset about?
