Whatever your politics are, and I’m making no secret about mine, this man is the rock star of 2008. I went to the rally at Bonanza this weekend and it was, despite the heat and the wait to get through security, incredible. I am always amazed at the ability for one man who despite reciting nearly the same speech at a series of events, can nonetheless instill the same passion and feeling into the crowd as all the others, and his ability to reach out and touch those people who listen.
