OBAMA IS A PHENOMENON

When Vince Carter arrived in the NBA fresh out of UNC, he sat the league on fire.  He was sensational.  Each of his games was a new highlight film.  ESPN featured his high-flying dunks and drives to the basket under a special category on their website.  He brought new meaning to the word, postered.  He dunked on Shaq, Mourning, Mutumbo, any and everybody who got in his path on the way to the basketball rim.  He was a phenon.

Louisiana, Nebraska, Washington, Maine, and for good measure, the U.S. Virgin Islands are not the names of basketball players, but states that Barack Obama swept this past weekend for caucus or primary victories.  It is called momentum and Obama has it. What he has been able to accomplish defies logic and is simply amazing.

After being built up by Republicans who thought they wanted to face him rather than Hillary Clinton in the general election and after being taken too lightly by his Democratic opponents, Obama has made believers out of all.  He is a piped piper who is leading a transformation of the American society and mindset.  He has a pretty good opponent in Hillary Clinton, but Obama is a phenomenon.  While Hillary makes the All-Star Team, Obama gets the special and sometimes phantom calls reserved for the superstars. 

So while the competition complains that he is all talk and little substance, most people are too enamored by his presence and the positive vibes that reverberates from him, that no one seems to be listening, and no one seems to care.

Sidebar:  If Obama's momentum is not quickly derailed and Hillary ends up losing Ohio, Pennsylvania, or Texas, super delegates will not be able to deliver on her presidential aspirations.
