Great talk. Thank goodness Obama won, because he is right, we would have been royally screwed if McCain and Palin won. Not that I am saying Obama is perfect, as no one is, but I think our country would have been subject to some major long term problems if he did not win. I have to say if Palin hadn't been in the picture, it would have been a lot closer of a race. McCain definitely ruined his chances choosing her.

If any country ever needed a genius, this one did and does. I think it's just possible we've got him.

Maybe the enigma is that what leftists identify with in Barak Obama, is his narcissism?
