Shallow comment here. I don't think I've ever seen Mr. O in a brown suit.

I hope he is as smart as I think he is. I've been unemployed going on a year now. 50k in student loans a B.S in computer science, three kids. All I have is hope nothing else. Watching the sky fall on CNN daily.

Hang in there, life has a way of turning on a dime. Create your own reality and stop watching the bloodbath. Peace.

[pendog]

Can't wait to watch! We all waiting to hear more details on what he has in store. I am still so moved by Obama's historic win. This page of the 600 newspaper covers featuring Obama's win says it all for me:

The proudest vote I ever cast was November 4 for Barack Obama, and I have a good feeling it will be the best vote I ever cast as well.

Obama does well in scripted settings...that teleprompter works wonders...

Get him away from that crutch and it's:

UH...WELL...LOOK...UMMMM...

[spicehandler]

I think you're confusing him with Sarah Palin....she's the pretty caucasian lady....he's the handsome guy with the "tan"...

[kalli007]

yeah...like the 3 debates where he consistently wiped the floor with Mccain?!?!?

ok.

[Thinking-It-Through]

Don't worry, your 2012 candidate is uh.well.look.umm.gosh.oshucksing her way into presidential toxicity amongst the Republican Party figures with her idiocy in my city of Miami this week.

[cornchips]

IAB, what you meant was that he was highly educated, articulate and inspiring....we will forgive you for your error :)

[Actionmac]

it's just the palin in him.

[truth2008]

Oh pleaseeeeeeee, did you see a teleprompter in the debates? That lie has been debunked!
Go away!!!!!!!!!

[IowaKid]

Morning Joe first off on the show. Sarah Palin. Can we PLEASE have at least one day without Sarah Palin.

[Ajegunle]

I just set my TIVO.

[Bariis]

Awesome! Can't wait to see it!

[Inthematrix]

Well, we know which show is going to be #1 in their time slot ;)

America's Funniest Videos? Nature on PBS?

[cornchips]

oh i see, you're one of those residents from the land of sour grapes...welcome to reality :)

[Khanate]

In a matter of weeks Hannity and Limbaugh will try to pin some idiotic
scandal on him. This gate thata gate. He ate chinese and used CHOPSTICKS!!!
He must support that regime!! CHOPGATE!!!

[IAB]

I predict that what happened to Clinton will happen to Obama...endless scandals, and finally they will find one that will stick in the media's mind, after several years of MSM fawning and brown nosing of Obama.

[spicehandler]

I'm sure you're workin' on it....keep holding your breath.

[cornchips]

i predict that he will serve 8 years, turn the country around, and bring sense and stability back to America...and the GOP scrambling to try and find someone that can measure up...

[truth2008]

I predict that IAB will be hospitalized for a psychiatric disorder, Paranoid schiz!

[Revolt916]

I hope they will ask him why are all the newspapers are selling out along with the rise in gun sales are going through the roof.

[luvobama]

Simple. We elected the boogeyman. I can tell you are a chicken for sure.

[IAB]

Your user name says it all.

[NotMcCain]

Because his supporters all can read?

[Kkak]

That's an easy one that I'll answer for you.

Group 1- Newspapers are selling because he had millions of excited supporters and we can all read, and we don't listen to the likes of the GOP idiots. Unlike group 2.

Group 2- In all it's ignorant splender, has bought in to all the fear mongering that the GOP and it's cohorts continaully dish out. That's because being uneducated and/or brainwashed allows even the most ridiculous thought to be beliveable. So, as a result, Group 2 is all under the impression that Obama is going to take their guns, despite the fact that there is nothing further from the truth.
Course, again, ignorance makes it hard to decipher what exactly is the truth.

[LemonMeringue]

Good. We need something different in the headlines.

[Wolf Larsen]

The only thing I would like to see more then this is a 2 hour Frontline on Obama with a 45 minute interview conducted by Lowell Bergman.

You can dream....right?

[harriscrl3]

Great I just hope there is no sporting event showing because they always run late and then I dont get to tape the entire interview because it comes on at 7:30 instead.

Although it is not the same thing as watching on your tv, you can watch 60 Minutes online at cbsnews dot com. I'd post the direct link to the video page but I don't want my comment deleted. They're usually pretty quick about posting the episodes.

[IAB]

True, a good way to watch it.

[Kkak]

Just be aware the NFL is on every Sunday through January, so It's probably that the game will run late. Adjust your Tivo settings as a precaution.

Can't wait!!

[IllinoisTexan43]

Well, maybe he can go on and apologize for the last 8 years the republicans are already pinning on him ;-)
