It's the Obamamatic. All new, complete and ready to lead.
It slices middle class tax bills. It dices upper class tax breaks.
The Obamamatic will protect millions who don't have health care and invest billions in the green economy.
The juicer will extract sweet campaign cash from a hopeful electorate.
The shredder can pulverize John McCain's White House hopes in an Alaska minute.
Slip on the foreign policy attachment and watch it restore America's image abroad to that glossy pre-Millennial shine.
Vote today and get the second term free.
The Obamamatic. It'll Barack your world!

It was the same old talking points with a few hand-picked American stories to further his agenda. What did you expect? It was predictable.
Why does everything he do have to be "awesome" and "brilliant"? He's allowed to do crappy stuff some times. Doesn't mean you shouldn't vote for him, but most of you act like he's infallible.
Stop acting like sheep. It's OK not to like everything this man does. Really.

But when you consider that the audience for last night's ad was specifically undecided voters, and The One still managed to hit some fairly inspirational notes amid all the economic boilerplate -- well, it's hard not to be impressed with his campaign's acumen, if not with their policy analysis.

The first number is the market rating for the city (eg..baltimore is 26, NYC is 1), the second number is the actual rating, the third is the rank for the ad (which is redundant because they are already in order) and finally, the writer noted whether or not the city was in a swing state.
26 Baltimore 31.3 1
4 Philadelphia 29.0 2 Pennsylvania
38 West Palm Beach-Ft. Pierce 28.0 3 Florida
29 Nashville 27.3 4
46 Greensboro-H.Point-W.Salem 27.2 5 North Carolina
21 St. Louis 27.1 6 Missouri
9 Washington, DC (Hagrstwn) 26.8 7 Virginia
1 New York 26.2 8
7 Boston (Manchester) 25.7 9
30 Hartford & New Haven 25.1 10

I just can't get that song out of my head. And frankly, I'm ok with it now. I've said it before, but Ashford and Simpson better be at the inauguration.
