Obamania a cult?
Two interesting blog posts today from different political perspectives. First, Jake Tapper at ABC:

http://www.powerlineblog.com/archive.../02/019737.php Notice how everytime Cali Coug posts on Obama, he follows it with about 30 exclamation points? "One step closer to President Barack!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" It's like we're all 14-years-old. Grab a random member of the Obama cult off the street and see if he/she can tell you a major policy point. We're seeing a political campaign built around a personality rather than around substance, and it's a little bit scary. I may detest John McCain, but I can't deny that the man has ideas and we all know what they are (although he's a little guilty of identity politics as well). If Obama goes all the way, I have this hunch he's going to be in way over his head.
