Yesterday I saw a poster that almost scared me. It was a picture of Obama in a sort of iconic likeness that said "Progress" underneath it. It reminded me of posters for Mao or Stalin that you might see.
Kurt, you were not wrong; there's an Obama office on my corner (eck) and there are three different posters at last count: Change,Progress, and....Hope. All done in the same "Soviet" style.
What's to worry about? I'm looking forward to his running, because he's going to get clobbered. It will be even more satisfying than McGovern (who had the excuse of running against an incumbent).
Wondering what his slogans and bumper stickers will look like. McGovern for a new generation and (portentous voiceover) In a race to the bottom against the Clintons, he lost don't do much for me.
