Obama Jumped the Shark
In his bid to live up to his messianic complex, Barack Obama is going to do a “rock star” acceptance speech. He wants to make it look like the will of the people are on his side (as opposed to the will of the sheeple).
Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) will leave the hall of the Democratic National Convention in Denver and deliver a rock-star-style acceptance speech at nearby Invesco Field at Mile High, quadrupling his live audience, the party announced Monday.
The speech, in the stadium that is home of the Denver Broncos, will be on the fourth and final night of the convention, Aug. 28.
Adding to the historic resonance of the first nomination of an African-American for president, that date is the 45th anniversary of Martin Luther King Jr.’s “I Have a Dream Speech.”
The idea is to make it look like the masses are cheering for his ascendancy to the throne, But coupled with his recent presidential seal mistake, the media is starting to turn on him. When someone gets built up that high, the press loves to tear them down. And Obama is really mostly a smoke and mirrors act, It won’t be hard to do.
His support mainly comes from extremely blue states and college towns. But he shows a weakness in carrying the must win states,. While some national polls have him ahead, others have him even. And it’s not unusual for Democrat candidates to be in the lead at this stage, John Kerry was way ahead of Bush this time last election season.
I have a feeling the more people look at Obama, the more his thin veneer will be chipped away.
UPDATE: He’s planning a world tour as if he’s running for world leader. Just a dot presumptuous, no?
He already jumped the shark with that mindless music video that turned random quotes of his into musical lyrics.
Here’s the Cobra Commander parody which actually makes more sense! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzrd6eVAsjA
