This 62 year old “Dead Head” Viet Vet is sorry to inform you that David Cassidy is more in line with Hillary in exciting crowds whereas Obama is the Greatful Dead,Jefferson Airplane and the Stones rolled into one.

Bob Etzler Ex back doorman Fillmore West 1968-1972,

He’s turned everything else on its head, and it would be especially effective this year. He will want to heighten the contrast with McCain in every way. He will run as a true liberal.</p> I have been thinking all along that Obama has reversed the normal trajectory: he started in the center for the primaries, and I will bet that he swings left in the general.

Obama makes speeches, but I’m the lady of action.

Yep you are:

You took these actions:

You voted to authorize the chaos and money hemorrhage in Iraq.

You voted to authorize Kyle-Leiberman.

You voted against Levin amendment and couldn’t even read it at the level of understanding of a freshman law student.

And you took the action not to have your SUV Limo Driver turn towards the Senate when you should have been supporting Dodd and Feingold’s FISA amendments and voting against immunity for you favorite Telcom Corporate master contributors.

After college Obama went into the streets and organized as an activist. After college you did nothing like that.
