1. That's one county over.

I thought the air smelled a little less Fundy today.

2. Great pics!

Now, even though I have problems with his handling of the various problems we are facing, I still respect him as a man of intelligence.

Those people look very happy to see him!

5. At least he's out talking to real people.

He needs to hear what regular citizens are saying. Hopefully, he's doing that here.

8. He radiates charisma.

I wish he'd use it more to our advantage.

Great photos, Mr. President. Now, can we please get to work on that CHANGE you promised?

10. Here again he sure talks a good game. But he has no idea how to play it.

11. This just makes me sad.

I voted reluctantly for Obama (Kucinich supporter here, never believed in all the change hype since our government is already bought and paid for).

In light of the latest SC decision, I suspect our end has been seriously hastened.

This just makes me sad, because he was the absolutely last chance.


(Although my partner, when I said this to him, responded: "The last possible chance was Jefferson... who unconstitutionally doubled the size of the country - Whoops.")
