The Media has a very short attention span

One day you hot the next day your not. One day your a hero the next day your a bum. This week the massmedia of the world is abuzz with headlines on how First-term Senator Barack Obama is a visionary, carismatic. You know what I'm talkin bout.

But just wait. Let's see how long it takes before the media turns on him. Here comes the attack machine. (Course he could shoot himself in the foot though).

Yeah - I read a bit about that. Do you know what his middle name is?

As in Saddam...

edit, for those that didn't make that short connection:
Obama's middle name is Hussein, "as in Saddam Hussein".

But, not sure that will be a/the stumbling block.

I like this guy. And that's a big and rare complement coming from me. It is rare that I actually like any Democrats (or Republicans for that matter). I think if he gets the nomination, I will vote for him. Of course I could change my mind between now and then, but I like what I have seen and heard so far.

Hes said repeatedly in the past that he experimented with different drugs in college. The media wont touch it right now. And his middle name could be Hussein Ahmednijad and the media wouldnt touch it until he gains more momentum. They love to create these pseudo heroes just so it will make better news when the real stuff comes out.

That's what I'm affraid of. I definately think he is capable of securing the nomination, but I also think there are powers that would not allow that to happen. He will be killed if need be.

Is this the best the Dems have to offer?! Looks like another Republican in the office in 08.
