Doc:

I’m really quite flattered, but you need to realize that I wrote that, not Obama. This was merely my proposal of what he could say that I believer would win over a lot of Latter-day Saints in the event that he wins the nomination and is up against a McCain/Huckabee or even a McCain/not-Huckabee ticket. ..bruce..

It’s speeches like these that convince me the Obama, far more than any of his competitors understands how to work with people and build bridges. If he can vault past the Clinton machine, I predict independents and moderates will swing to him in a bid way and it will be Obama by a landslide.

To paraphrase Agrippa in Acts 26:28, “Almost thou persuadest me to be a Democrat.”

Although I disagree with most of Obama’s positions, I really like the guy, and I believe he sincerely wants the best for the country (unlike Hillary or McCain), however misguided he is. Utahns can percieve that. If he becomes the Democratic nominee, I’ll vote for him, as will a lot of Utahns, I think, provided, as you say, that Romney is not McCain’s running mate. But there’s a slim chance of that happenning anyway. McCain is far more likely to choose Huckabee, which will probably sway Utah even further toward Obama.
