Here is the video:
Michele looks lovely. Wade through the music, his speech starts at about .57
If there is any problem with this video, here is the C-SPAN link.
His dry humor just never gets old for me.

Go POTUS

Michelle is breathtaking.
Is that “Missing Obama Already” a new tag, or have we had it for a while? I expect it’s going to get quite the workout over the next four months.

I watched this, if it’s the same talk.
Damn he IS a good speaker. We do not deserve how good this man has been for this country. I’m so grateful for his hard work, in the face of unremitting racist opposition from people eaten up with evil.

@J R in WV: That literally sums it up. Make your choice – fear or hope. Hate or progress.
Has any election been clearer? Trump in retrospect has made McCain and Romney seem like wise, solemn statesmen. Palin included, somewhat.

@SiubhanDuinne: I made a new tag…don’t tell John.

Love it, thanks!

I am getting frozen video, but the audio is good.
ETA: It fixed itself.

@TaMara (HFG): Thumbs up! I feel it. I miss him everytime I read about this election, and he’s still Prez!

@hovercraft: Thanks. I mean, I understand his frustration, there are like so many categories now, it’s impossible to sort through to find what you need. But there are only two Obama tags and neither fit what I’ve been posting lately, so I bit the bullet and created a new tag. Between that and the Walter tag, I think I’m justified.

That was so great. Over-used word, but I’ll use it here: Awesome. Missing Obama Already is a great tag, sure to be used many times.

God damn, tears in my eyes. Also, the call out that it would be a personal insult if people did vote in this elections…. Damn.

He’s a great speaker, and I am glad that most times, he asks something of the folks who are listening. Because he’s right: change doesn’t happen unless the people get out there and do the work and make it happen.
It’s almost easy to be lulled with a speaker as gifted as PBO – I know I almost feel like I’ve done something just by listening to him. But it takes calls and canvassing and registering voters and helping folks get to the polls. Let’s do the actual work here, everyone. And then we can watch “Obama’s Greatest Hits” on Nov 9th, knowing that not just the past 8 years of progress but 8 years’ worth of momentum are still rolling and we’re not going to be stopped!
(what can I say: I’m channeling my inner Donna Brazile & Michelle Obama here after yesterday’s rally ;)

@Omnes Omnibus: Did not… Jebus. You know what I meant.

My husband’s cousin’s son did an internship in D.C. last year between grad school degrees. His summary regarding PBO is “best president ever, we don’t deserve him”. I hope someday we’ll grow up enough as a country to be worthy of how highly he thought of us.

@StringOnAStick: We can work on it.
