Show us your best stuff, Obama.

Obama. Obama. Get with it, man. Or you are gonna lose this election. You have lost your lustre. John McCain and his barracuda have taken it from you. Stolen it. They are outfoxing you on the political front. They are making this an election of personalities. Not issues. Yes, personalities. They are gambling that American voters care more about captivating personalities than about captivating issues. It's a lot easier making personality captivating than it is to make an issue captivating. Americans want to be entertained. They don't care that much about issues. Early in the primary campaign, you deftly captured their imaginations, Obama. But you haven't done much since. You have to electrify the electorate. Day after day. Week after week. Or you'll lose to the Republicans. In a year that once seemed impossible. McCain and the barracuda are about to pull off a big, big upset. Unless you do something about it. And I mean soon, Obama. Show us your best stuff. --Jim Broede
