Obama packed the house at Tulane. People lined up before dawn. BEFORE DAWN."Here, in the city that gave us jazz, we know that even the most painful note can be followed by joy. Here, in this city, if we look hard enough, we can imagine the unseen - homes filled with families; businesses putting folks to work; schools extending opportunity; the next verse in the American song."Read this speech in

Darkness & LightBill is propelled by Cheneyesque paranoia, as well. His visceral reaction to Obama — from the "fairy tale" line to the inappropriate Jesse Jackson comparison — is rooted less in his need to see his wife elected than in his need to see Obama lose, so that Bill's legacy is protected.

The Kennedy Mystique.“With Barack Obama, we will turn the page on the old politics of misrepresentation and distortion,” Senator Kennedy declared. “With Barack Obama, there is a new national leader who has given America a different kind of campaign — a campaign not just about himself, but about all of us,” he said.This is a very telling op-ed piece -- by a conservative columnist.

Toni Morrison endorses Obama."In addition to keen intelligence, integrity and a rare authenticity, you exhibit something that has nothing to do with age, experience, race or gender and something I don’t see in other candidates. That something is a creative imagination which, coupled with brilliance, equals wisdom," she wrote.

“I’m going to tell them I bought my outfit second-hand from Hillary in Chappaqua,” my mother jokes each year as we make our way to Yonkers, NY to spend Thanksgiving with my father’s (mostly conservative) family. I don’t know if it’s the pants suit or the hair, but for years now my mother and Hillary Clinton have reminded me of one another. Smart and engaging and almost the same age, they even

A touching piece from JFK's only living child, in "A President Like My Father," Caroline Kennedy explains why - for the first time in her life - she's inspired by a candidate the way people have always told her they were inspired by her father. That candidate is Senator Barack Obama.Read the whole article at:www.nytimes.com/2008/01/27/opinion/27kennedy.html?ref=opinion
