No Drama From Obama

Just first class all the way! I'll say the same for John Edwards as well.... however,

Let me tell you why I'm so impressed by Obama (in case you hadn't noticed):

1.The man is a master at extemporaneous oration - and eloquently so. His speech in New Hampshire was nothing short of brilliant. Obama used no notes; it was straight "off the dome" and from his heart.
2. Obama stays on the high road, but knows how to expose the underhanded tactics of the opposition without hurling one personal attack.
3. He's not simply King- or Kennedy-esque, he is original, genuine, transparent, and approachable. He's himself.
4. Obama recognizes his place in history, and is walking in the path with dignity and respect, for the named and nameless who died before they could see this day.
5. He is intelligent, thoughtful, even-tempered, and knows how to handle himself whether or not the cameras are rolling.

The nation is watching with great anticipation and expectation. I have no idea who will win the the nominations for either party. But the race and the heat are on. There's an old saying that goes something like this - "in a crisis, character is not built, it is revealed." Or,I can put it this way, "whatever is inside, will come out." In times like these, it's just very interesting to sit back and watch people reveal themselves. In terms of keeping it real, staying focused, and drama-free, Obama's out far and ahead of the rest.
