Obama finally talks to O'Reilly, attempts to steal GOP thunder

FOX News' "The O'Reilly Factor" finally gets a chance to interview Obama. It will air at 8 p.m. ET tonight. According to the program, the senator concedes that the troop surge in Iraq succeeded.

Obama was invited to the program in early 2007. Why grant the interview now?

After Palin's show-stopping speech last night, the Obama/Biden campaign is panicking. Palin totally ripped the Dem ticket apart. The media is in a feeding frenzy. Nobody's paying attention to The One, and that's not a good sign. Liberals are scared... Can't blame them, their own leftist media CBS even released a poll with McCain and Obama dead even at 42%!

The Obama campaign finally talked The One into being challenged on FOX News. It's all about media coverage and generating buzz. His campaign simply cannot sit idle while newspapers, blogs, and TV shows continue to run stories about Palin. Not to mention showering some rain onto McCain's parade tonight as he delivers his acceptance speech.
