Barack Obama Reaches Out to Somebody Else's Voters

POSTED BY: CubbyChaser

In his Oregon victory speech -- which was obviously delivered across the country in Iowa -- Barack Obama spoke directly to his base of likely voters.

Namely, old white people, poor uneducated people, and women over 40. Hey, people of my flock, Change is Coming to America!

[It's] why grandparents have spent all their afternoons making phone calls to perfect strangers. It's what led men and women who can barely pay the bills to dig into their savings and write five dollar checks and ten dollar checks, and why young people from all over this country have left their friends and their families for a job that offers little pay and less sleep...

It's the spirit that sent the first patriots to Lexington and Concord and led the defenders of freedom to light the way north on an Underground Railroad. It's what sent my grandfather's generation to beachheads in Normandy, and women to Seneca Falls, and workers to picket lines and factory fences.

Well, that should do it. He mentioned them, kind of.

All those people who were formerly Clinton and McCain supporters are powerless before Obama's magnetic beam of vague charisma.
