Dude. You're not even first on the thread topic...

He'll win the Democratic nomination then he'll win the general election and become President. You heard it here first. UT, feel free to mark the calendar.

I'm with you on this one V. I think he's got it in the bag. My husband thinks Hillary will get the nod, but I think she's been doing too many backflips and it's going to cost her.

I also have to say that I like Obama's style. Here's a little anecdote for you.

Our illustrious Prime Minister Mr Howard was quoted as saying that if he were Osama, he'd be putting a ring around March next year and praying for Obama to win.

Mr Obama has responded by suggesting that Mr Howard should put his money where his mouth is and as another 20 000 Australian soldiers to head over to Iraq.

This was followed by our newly appointed opposition leader inviting Mr Howard to a public debate on the issue of Iraq and the Australian presence there.

Mr Howard has declined.

I hope Mr Rudd wins the next election here. I think he will make a most excellent Prime Minister.

I SAW THAT ON THE COLBERT REPORT (a TV show on Comedy Central in the States)! Yeah, it was a really funny bit where Stephen Colbert said to Mr. Howard FUCK OFF and stop talking shit about a United States citizen, that's our job to criticize our own.

Well, it was funny on the show; I can't emulate the hilarity sorry.
