Another two states, Hawaii and Wisconsin, have stood up for change and resonated with chants of Yes We Can. That is now ten in a row for Senator Obama, and the momentum has now unanimously shifted towards the Illinois orator.

In January alone, Obama was able to raise a record $36 million, a figure more than both Hillary and McCain combined. The beauty of this figure is Obama hardly had to physically fundraise the entire month, as 200,000 of the 300,000 donors were first timers, and 90% of the online donors gave $100 or less.

Truly a digital grassroots (Astroturf-roots?) campaign, Purple is the color of the day, despite NYT’s David Brooks sour outlook:

“Up until now The Chosen One’s speeches had seemed to them less like stretches of words and more like soul sensations that transcended time and space. But those in the grips of Obama Comedown Syndrome began to wonder if His stuff actually made sense.”

Well, even in the grips of this alleged Obama burnout, the voters obviously are not feeling the effects of the fervent support for the most inspiring candidate since JFK. As the exit polls show, more people than ever are supporting Barack, and obviously do not care about a silly plagiarism attack by Clinton’s camp.

I, for one, am still incredibly excited by the man, and what he stands for. Sure, the tingling chill doesn’t come as readily as it did when I was witness to his speech in New Hampshire, but that is fine. It is more than fine, because the Senator can now focus on solving the issues that have inspired not just the nation, but also the world. Look, he was even ahead of the game on terrorism!

Kinetic purple is not only here to stay, it seems to be rising, ready to bathe this country in a unified, strong hand-up. Americans are ready to get reacquainted with the American Dream, and Barack Obama is just the man to lead us in that direction.
