I just looked at a “briefing” by David Plouffe about the state of the Obama campaign, including a plug for more dollars. What caught my eye, though, was the graphic behind Plouffe.

This image includes a light that appears to be rising off the horizon, something like a sunrise. Look closer.

That’s us on the horizon. Its the “little people” who power the campaign. Here figuratively lighting the way. Masterful. The sophistication of the Obama campaign’s manipulation of imagery should scare me, but I find myself just loving it.
