Obamamania and the liberals

By letter to the editor

I have a theory as to why the MSM and the liberal pundits are falling in love with Obama (Chris Matthews recently had a "Thrill go up his leg" while listening to Obama). Obama's speeches remind me of the sermons given by a preacher at one of those mega churches. They give feel good sermons using words like change and hope. Now a lot of conservatives go to church on a regular basis and they hear oratory like Obama gives all the time and they wonder what all the fuss is about. A lot of liberals on the other hand don't go to church and they have never heard "sermons" like this before and it really affects them emotionally. I just hope once the two parties have chosen their candidates (More than likely Obama and McCain) we can get down to more substance and less emotion.
