LOST IN THE HORSE RACE MADNESS: OBAMA GOES DEEP

While all the incestuous Washington nimrods were discussing the importance of the Tuesday outcome (which was preordained anyhow), they all whizzed the notable addition to Obama's stump speech. It was deep it was remarkable and utterly over McCain's haid.

Barack said we need to be concerned with "Paying for both sides of the war on terror." The breathless cognoscenti completely missed it. It is exactly right on so many levels, it may be tantamount to Lincoln's early and often "preservation of the union" message. Just let your mind play with how may ways we are paying for both sides of the war on terror. Start with Prince Bandar's nickname if you want to first pick off the low-hanging intellectual fruit.

If BO takes that and runs with it, explains it and proposes real solutions, americans will see that their economic and security woes are not divisible and that the problem runs a little beyond duct tape.

Well done, Senator.
