SUSkinsFan Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Do you guys realize what we are about to see tonight?? I can't wait. Tonight's speech will be epic.I really believe that Obama needs to get back to some of the rhetoric that he used in the primaries and he will absolutely steamroll McCain. The one line he always repeated in the primaries that sticks with me is "special interests will be able to have a seat at the table, but they won't be allowed to buy every chair". That is an absolutely amazing line and people love to hear a candidate say it. His rhetoric has been toned down since June so I'm hoping tonight represents a turning point in his campaign and he returns to the form he showed from January-June Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heisenberg Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 I believe it's actually Greek looking columns - just like most monuments in DC have. Greek = birthplace of Democracy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, it was obviously a deliberate choice on their part and surely cost a pretty penny. I just can't see the upside in trying to cast yourself in that light.

It's supposed to make himself appear more Presidential to voters. Much ado about nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
