Boston Globe: Obama speechwriter Jon Favreau - EASY POST & PROWL

[Speeches Favreau helped write] included Obama's pivotal address to the Jefferson-Jackson Day Dinner in Iowa.... : This party, the party of Jefferson and Jackson, of Roosevelt and Kennedy, has always made the biggest difference in the lives of American people, when we led, not by polls, but by principle; not by calculation, but by conviction. Also, his acceptance speech at the Democratic convention in Denver, and his election-night victory address in Chicago: If there is anyone out there. .
[ Some good info here as well as puff. - tdo ]
