The article in Time Magazine, "Where's the fire", discusses how the Democrats feel like Senator Barack Obama is losing ground and running out fire. Despite Obama's charisma, flashy convention, vice-presidential pick, and a so-called democratic year Obama can't seem to blaze pass Senator John McCain in the polls.

The article says that Obama is keeping his cool and not letting the polls worry him. He doesn't want to be perceived as scared or an angry African American either like a Malcom X. The article states that he knows he's unsure how white America and other people in the country would respond to emotions as scared and angry.

Obama has overcome many obstacles. He has overcome the Clinton machine, the first African American as a presidential nominee, some doubts in his inexperience but he still has to overcome the challenge that he is ready and that McCain is not another Bush term.

It's funny to watch as a conservative voter the trouble that Governor Sarah Palin has given the Obama camp. They know she's almost perfect. As the article states they can't decide whether to paint her as inexperience, another Bush term, not a "true" woman, or just simply ignore her. The Obama campaigns knows almost no matter what argument they make against her that it will either not set well with the American people or it would be the same attacks that were thrown at Senator Obama.

As we continue to watch this political show in this election year things will, I'm sure, become more and more interesting. It will just be interesting to see how the Obama campaign responds to the McCain-Palin campaign. I guess the Obama camp knows what Senator Hillary Clinton and McCain felt like when they media was in love (and still is) with Obama. Is it frustrating Senator Obama?
