I'm reading Obama's book, The Audacity of Hope, and I have to say it's pretty good. Anyone who's ever wondered what he's all about as a candidate should give it a look. I started supporting him because I didn't like Hillary, but every time I saw him on TV I found myself agreeing with more of what he says, and liking the way he keeps his discourse from degenerating into the usual political shouting match. And if he's *really* anything like the person he paints himself as in this book, then I think he could become one of the best Presidents this country has ever seen. Unless, the Democrats manage to do what they're best at... snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. (don't remember who coined this phrase about the Democrats, but it wasn't me. ATTRIBUTION!!!)

I use that phrase to describe the Dems quite a bit.
I have no idea who came up with it.
But I'll take credit for it.
Also, I invented the fist bump.
If you invented the bump, then that means you're a terrorist. You should turn yourself in.
