How do you form that opinion?
I've listened to some of Obama's soundbites and some of McCain's soundbites...
McCain stumbled over his words...


Obama uses psychological embedding, anchoring and re-anchoring in his speeches. The techniques are similar to hypnosis. Those who hynotize easy are more affected. I can give you an example of how this works from a recent speech of his.

My dreams and my hopes are for Obama to moderate and not push radical socialist programs.

I am hoping that Obama will moderate his socialism and move more towards the middle.

What gives you this hope?

You certainly aren't hoping that he messes up our country just so Republican religious fundamentalists will get more power in the future, do you?

Neither. These may be related or mutually exclusive. Who knows? You connect these in your mind? I am for stopping socialism from gaining any more ground.
