Obama Humbled by Historic Win
After capturing his party’s nomination Tuesday, Barack Obama told reporters that his historic win had not yet sunk in and that he planned on reflecting on his win over the weekend at home with his family.
So what did he discover?
“Ya know, in between the sleepover with seven seven-year-olds and a bike ride, I did reflect on it. And I am extraordinarily proud of what my team did and I think am most of all humbled and grateful to the American people for giving me this opportunity. Humbled because we’ve got a big job ahead of us and it makes me want to redouble my efforts in delivering on the promises that have been made so far in the campaign,” Obama told reporters.
Mr. Obama also shared little on his secret meeting with Senator Clinton last week, describing it as “constructive,” and noting the two did not have “detailed discussions” about her +$20 million debt.
“Our teams are now working together to figure out how we move forward on a whole variety of fronts…I think that what she’s really interested in, as she said on Saturday, is figuring out how are we going to move forward to make sure we win the White House.”

He should be humbled just to be in the same room as Hillary.

I am so sick of Obama’s humbleness. What a charlatan he is. Hopefully he will be humbled this fall by his landslide loss like McGovern’s.
I am so proud we as a nation have given Barack Obama a chance to be president. It is very impressive that other countries are finally saying something positive about our country and we can indeed show the American Dream and opportunity by electing this fine young man as our leader. He seems to be sincere in his gratitude for the chance.
I hope all Clinton supporters start supporting Obama. It’s time for us all to unite and take back our country. The republican have done enough damage. It’s time to put McCain in his place. The war needs to be over, and the rich need not get richer at our expence. Obama is for all people not just the well off. I believe in him and he is the one to make the changes we need. GO OBAMA
YES WE CAN!!!
How long is Obama going to be able to play the whole “look how modest and nice I am” card and actually take a stance on something and come out a tell the nation what he really is about. I am freaked out about the way he beats around the bush. Who is this guy, why would someone vote for him with out knowing his stance on very important issues. Oh, I know who would. The crazy liberals who dont have any balls. You know im not that afraid of Obama winning because all his voters will be to busy hugging trees to get to the polls!
Go America and Long Live The Conservative Right!!
fox news, please get off the ‘obama express’ thats all you seem to talk about lately, are you getting ‘ obamatized’ ?? what would Hannity think? stop it already.
let “Hussein” rest, he’s gonna need it, for the upcoming battle.
I suppose it really is historic for a Muslim Marxist with ties to the American Communist party to actually be elected in this once great country of America!
What makes Obama so amazing is even with all his success, inside he’s still that community organizer trying to make the difference for people. Obama is truly a once in a lifetime leader.
She sure hit the nail on the head.
The only thing historic about his win is the slimy way he limped across the line. If anything is reported in history this will be it. “Black man steals nomination with support of DNC” Humble my ****. He doesn’t know what humble is or what humble does. This man cannot be handed the keys to my White House and millions of us are forming to stand against him and expose him.
We will protect America if no one else will including a disfunctional democratic party!!!
DEMOCRATS FOR MCCAIN
He is a vary humble man.
I heard that, as a counter to this publicity, Republicans were scheduling their own Young Republican sleepover, hosted by Mark Foley, Larry Craig, and David Vitter.
Should be interesting!
Humbled? Right!
So the Super Delegates voting him in because the DNC said to makes him humble. Get over it. No one else cares cause we are voting McCain.
