25 July 2008 - Yes, it did creep me out.

I got home from work yesterday and caught the last 20 minutes of Barack Obama holding mass in Berlin.  And yes, it did completely creep me out.  All that was needed was Leni Riefenstahl there to film it.

OK, it wasn't quite that well organized.

So, looking at the content.  WOW....great hopes, NO ANSWERS!!

At what point will we finally hear from Senator Obama how is plans on doing all of the things that he talked about yesterday?  

The answer is that we won't.

He can't.  He was reaching well beyond what he COULD control even IF he was President.

In other words, he is not heeding the advice of Casey Kasem.  While he is reaching for the stars, he is NOT keeping his feet on the ground.

When I worked in sales, I learned a key phrase.  "Undersell and over deliver."  

Barack Obama is EXACTLY the opposite.

Let me be clear.  Barack Obama is NOT alone, John McCain and 95 percent of all other politicians do the exact same thing.

But doing so in front of 200,000 people who can't even vote for you?

Just creeps me out.

Maybe it is a bias against large German political rallies.

The Royals broke their skid by beating the Tampa Bay Rays last night 4-2.  

That should help the last day of this promotion.

Nothing else to add really.  Thank you to the folks here at HyVee for having us out the last three days and to the Royals helping us put a great promotion together.

Have a great weekend.

I heard that they had some kind of entertainment there in Germany as well. Makes me wonder if people were there for Obama's rally or for the free concert.

He is all about change - yet he talks the same game as most political campaigns...what change is there in that?
