    Oh you damn right! What a great video.


    And in an odd way, isn't it crazy how true it is. This whole thing has been like a movie, with Obama going through the Hero's Journey.



    We had the quick rise.



    We had the unfair trails.



    And now has a chance to go into Act III of this story, redemption.



    And in that spirit, wouldn't it be crazy if Barack pulled off Indiana?



    All the BS, all the fear mongering.



    Wouldn't it be a beautiful end to the story (or at least this round of it) if we won NC and Indiana?

    LOL!


    I think it's safe to say. . . Obama has won the artistic/creativity crowd in a landslide!
  • dnA
    That was the best thing I ever saw.
  • rikyrah
    This is so funny. I needed this laugh.
  • Los Angelista
    Yeah! Abraham Lincoln as Obi Wan and Bill Clinton as The Emperor! LOL!


    Seriously though, whoever put this together is a genius. Love it.
