to be a little bit in love with Barak Obama?

[lettinggo]

and to say that if I ever hear any stories about him straying I'll be devastated?

He's here in Ireland on a visit today and doing a walkabout in a small town called Moneygal (where one of his ancestors came from). He just pulled a little baby from the crowd and had a cuddle and I think I swooned.

After Queen Elizabeth's successful visit last week, the thoughts were that this visit might be a bit of an anticlimax but he and his wife are so warm, it's another total success. Great for Ireland to have something to celebrate!

Not actually in love, but he seems brainy compared to the last chap.

Perhaps favourite to win again due to Bin Laden demise

YANBU. I'm in love with Barack and Michelle. Michelle more so than Barack in fact. I wish we had her as our First Lady rather than Sam Cam, who I find pretty dull. Michelle inspired me to keep going through my degree when I was really struggling with it.

I've just got back from standing outside Westminster Abbey. I managed to get a glimpse of them both, which has made me so happy

Hahahaha at easier on the eye than George Bush. Understatement or what!

[nokissymum]

Oh come on gals ! , Clinton wasn't lacking in charm either was he ? He was dangerously charming and has a certain seductive curve to his lip, and that sardonic jaw when he said "I did not have sexual relations with that woman"

DH saw him whizzing past in his car today, and e-mailed me to say so!

They seem such a picture book perfect family but also genuinely nice too.

YANBU. He exudes charm, intellegence and appears very sincere. The polar opposite of twunty at no 10.

I told my dp that I had dreamt I had an affair with Obama. In my dream, I admitted the affair to my dp, who (understandably hurt, in the dream) had asked "why?". In my dream, my explanation was "he's a very natty dresser" - to which my dp's response (still in the dream) was to wail "it's just a suit".

In response to the dream (in RL) my dp sent me a Valentine's card (anonymous sender) with a mock presidential seal on it! (He is a very good sport and I love him dearly).

Obviously I don't always set my sights quite that high - in another dream, I was propositioned by Meatloaf but let him down as gently as I could, explaining that I was very happy with dp. Dp is now convinced it only takes a good-looking world leader in a suit to lead me astray, but that leather-clad biker/singers are less of a threat...

Not enough in love to spell his name correctly though, OP

[lettinggo]

Whoops

[Triggles]

Seriously?? Good grief! I think he looks shifty and doesn't seem honest to me at all. Ah, well. Everyone has their own perceptions I suppose. I certainly won't be voting him back in office.

[LetThereBeRock]

What Triggles said,plus,he seems so arrogant.

[strandednomore]

I think we all love him a bit for not being George Bush. But I agree he is extremely charasmatic....

[Punkatheart]

Shifty? Arrogant? Astonishing. I just cannot see those qualities in him at all. He is highly intelligent and confident. If anyone was shifty, it was the unbearable stupid George Bush.

[noddyholder]

I can't bear him either He sounds so rehearsed and insincere. Also looks v much like my ex who was a sneaky git

[Triggles]

no George Bush doesn't look clever enough to be sneaky or shifty...lol

[diabolo]

He's gorgeous! I'll have him, Denzel Washington and Will Smith - with me in the middle, for several hours.

Oh yes!
