Title: Closing MMJ track for Obama
Post by: Paulie Walnuts on Nov 05, 2008, 08:15 AM
After his inspirational speech what MMJ track would have captured the moment for you as the President-elect left the podium?

I don't know about in Chicago, but Chills could have been played at my house and it would have been appropriate.  :) I'm not sure if it's safe to be this giddy/happy/proud/American.

QuoteHighly Suspicious  ;D

This would be my pick as well....
Obama has the power to do great things, but no one really knows what the guy is going to do.  He is a liberal running on a centrist platform.  He didn't really vote on anything contraversial in his short time in the U.S. Senate...considering he spent almost all of his time there contemplating how he was going to run for president.  No matter how much you like the guy, no one really knows what he is going to do while in office....
He won though so I will respect him as my president (something many people didn't do for Bush)....I am still "Highly Suspicious" of him.

I totally agree. These guys specialize in bullshit, so only time will tell if he is (and I hope he is) for real.

That being said (and it's obvious I voted for McCain), I am rooting for the guy to succeed because I want the U.S. to succeed.  I also applaud him for making history.  However, I will hold any further applause until he performs.  His new job is going to be tough (I wouldn't want it)...Do the office proud...then maybe I will dedicate a good one to ya.

One Big Holiday would have been nice obviously. Maybe Easy Morning Rebel. Dancefloors. Masterplan. I would say It Still Moves is a good Obama album.

I think Wilco is more appropriate...but if I had to choose an MMJ track I'd say I'm Amazed.

I'm Amazed. A good description of the world he's up against as president.
