I was going to mention that, too. McCain's humour was delivered better, but darn if Obama didn't make for some fine oratory in the serious speech there. He has a definite talent and a lot of professionalism.

And yes, I think Obama is a sign of change in a big way. Not so much immediately political but perhaps cultural. The whole Obama-Clinton race this year, in fact, is definitely one of the most striking things to happen in the US elections in a long time.

That's not, of course, to make a comment on him as potential president. If it all ends in his favour, he's got his work cut out for him and he'll need to prove himself in that he's capable of producing more than just hot air.
