Obama-Mania

You can't say for certain, but surely Barack Obama's high energy rally in downtown Hartford had something to do with his come-from-behind victory in the Connecticut Democratic Primary.

My feelings on Obama are of the "sure, the guy seems decent enough, but isn't he still a politician?" variety. I guess I just don't get what all the excitement is about. I just wonder what would be a more satisfying end when it comes to the Obama phenomenon- having the hopes of his supporters crushed when he fails to win the White House or having the hopes of his supporters crushed when he turns out to be a more articulate version of George W. Bush. Either way, get your popcorn.
