Joe the Prophet?

Dear Diary,

Up late catching up on news articles from past week—can’t be outdone in New York Times reading by Sarah Palin!—and came across article about Cindy McCain.  That poor woman!  Dragged around by McSkeletor, forced to support losing campaign, cut off from supply of drugs, all those miscarriages…though, if being perfectly honest, some people do need to learn when to stop having children as new socialist health care policies will be stressed by plethora of children.  Anyway, don’t know how Jill Biden and Cindy did it—Michelle put her foot down after Sasha and said no more kids, with or without epidural.

Also stumbled across article covering Joeâ??s remarks at a Seattle fundraiser this past weekend:  â??Mark my words. It will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy. The world is looking. Weâ??re about to elect a brilliant 47-year-old senator president of the United States of America.  Remember I said it standing here if you donâ??t remember anything else I saidâ?¦ As a student of history and having served with seven presidents, I guarantee you itâ??s going to happen.â?

Apparently did not vet VP candidate thoroughly enough as was until now unaware of Joeâ??s talents for divination.  Regardless, seems a useful job skill to have.  Wonder if prophesying skills extend to economic crises, international disputes, and poll results.  Anyway, should have seen this coming: a prophet and the messiah always come at same time.

Still ahead in polls!

Hopefully yours,
Barack
