I also read The Political Brain–very insightful, fascinating. I think the Democrat party finally took some time to ask themselves, “Hey, why do we keep losing? And what can we do about it?”

I’m glad we have a presidential candidate that is educated and not an embarrassment when he speaks. The DNC finally gets someone who is a good orator without disracting body mannerisms.

Hypnosis of the people, my @ss! What’s next? Seriously?! What is next by these divisive evangelical and/or fundamentalist Christian-Obama haters?

I have read most everything I can possibly read, watch many videos, news . . . . and listened to AM radio to try to examine this political race from all different kinds of angles and opinions. I have learned so much.

What Obama has had to go through, what he’s going through and what he will experience will take a strong person. I hope that he wins this election and will be about to demonstrate to doubters and haters that he will not only persevere, but thrive and help our econmically troubled nation start to put itself back together.

Sincerely,
Elizabeth

Andy, I’ll be interested to see your review…

I got a fabulous quote today from David Shephard when he read this, he said:

It all reminds me of a quote from a great book, Mark Fisher’s The Instant Millionaire. “Most people mistake a highly developed skill for cheating”

Very true 🙂

It’s good that the Democrats have finally cottoned on to connecting with peoples’ emotions effectively – I’m currently reading Drew Westen’s “The Political Brain” http://tinyurl.com/6b5qwt (review coming in my blog soon – suffice it to say it’s fascinating) and some of the ads that the Republicans have used in previous campaigns were chillingly effective. Apparently they used a subliminal in one of them!
