On a local talk radio station a woman called and told the hosts to stop picking on Obama. When they asked her to name one policy she supports Obama on she said "He gives me hope". She is still in a "hope and change" hypnotic trance! She knows nothing about issues and bases her opinions on raw emotion. There are too many like her.

To be fair, Obama is not the first President to rely mostly on image and emotion. Kennedy did it, Reagan did it, and Clinton did it. And just like Obama, they were borderline worshiped by their supporters and viewed as virtually the anti-Christ by their detractors. Although, not so much Kennedy now. It seems that being shot really does boost your popularity.

I have hope, too. I hope we survive Obama.
