You don’t need a Weatherman to know which way the wind blows. But you can pal around with one, nonetheless.

@Maura Johnston: Nah, Dylan was neither here nor there for me. It just gives them a reason to post some "hey, maybe they're not so bad after all" sentiment with a respected name attached. It's not just a few people hoping anymore. His nomination shows that talk may actually turn to action.

Honestly, I’m glad Obama won, but is he really “redefining the nature of politics”? If anything, I’d say the unusually confrontational style of Bush-era politics (from both sides) was the anomaly and Obama’s rise is just the reflection of things balancing out. Apparently there’s this obligation in US politics to talk about your candidate as the Second (or First, for the Jews in the audience) Coming instead of, you know, taking a more sober view.

Just what Obama needs- another endorsement from someone prone to go on wacky Christian-themed rants.

Point taken. But did you really think that Bob Dylan was going to go McCain?

Maybe it’s not so unsurprising, considering the perception of American people around the world.
