Yup. According to Georgia Republican congressman, Paul Broun. “It may sound a bit crazy and off base, but the thing is, he’s the one who proposed this national security force,” Rep. Paul Broun said of Obama in an interview Monday with The Associated Press. “I’m just trying to bring attention to the fact that we may — may not, I […]

This is pure brilliance. It’s so absolutely absurd that, if it weren’t serious, it would be nothing but total satire. But the thing is, the guy that wrote the following piece of…of… Jesus, I don’t even know what to call it… was being serious. Obama thinks he is a good talker, but he is often undisciplined when he speaks. He […]

On May 15th, I joined the “Dexter for Obama” group on My.BarackObama.com. A couple of weeks later, I received a message from a woman named MaryAnn. It read: Hope Everyone Cann (sic) attend the Organizing Meeting on Thursday June 19 at 7 at Dexter Pub. See you there. On June 19th, my wife and I plopped our kayaks into a […]

I haven’t done much writing about the election since Tuesday because, frankly, I’m still digesting it and am having some difficulty putting my thoughts down in words. I think that this letter does as good a job as anything else in showing how things are changed. If you think any other politician could inspire young people in the ways described […]

Night of the Living Obama Supporters. I’m just sayin’…

These are the four men who got Barack Obama elected as the President of the United States. Four brilliant strategists who know how to LEAD. From the left: Robert Gibbs, David Plouffe, Barack Obama, and David Axelrod I’m just sayin’…

Yesterday was a bittersweet day as we spent it taking apart the downtown Ann Arbor Obama HQ. Most of the Field Organizers as well as our Regional Field Director will leave town in the next few days, returning to their homes. But what an impact they had in Michigan. One of the most striking victories for our group was the […]

We were having a beer at the Arbor Brewing Company last night after spending the day preparing for four solid days of Get Out The Vote (GOTV) activities. We’ll spend 12-hour days (or more) between now and when the poll close on Tuesday getting Barack Obama elected. While we were at the pub, Sarah Palin stopped by and Mrs. E. […]

Mrs. E. undertook a two-day trip through the two Midwest battleground states of Ohio and Indiana last week. She stopped at the campaign headquarters of both Barack Obama and John McCain, and asked volunteers there the same question: “What is it about this election year that inspires you to volunteer?” Their answers along with a photo slideshow are now posted […]

I have another Huffington Post piece up today, talking about how busy Obama volunteers (like me) have pretty much put off everything that’s non-essential in their lives until after the election. Read it HERE. In the process of gathering the quotes, I had a couple of interesting email conversations and there was one, in particular, that I found fascinating. It […]

Seven more days. I woke with a sinus headache and the sniffles this morning – bound to be a cold coming on. Lost of people at the Campaign for Change headquarters pulling long shifts and looking a bit blearly. Temps dropping into the 30s this week with snow in the forecast. But we’re not letting up one bit in Michigan, […]
