Blogging Pedagogy

It is great so see so many posts about the election campaign. I have been wishing I was teaching a rhetoric class right now with all the talk of rhetoric, plagiarism, etc. in the media. I wanted to offer this piece to the conversation, a pretty solid (B/B+) rhetorical analysis of an Obama speech in The Washington Post. Lots of talk of audience and it addresses Obama's direct appeal to our shared "young voter" demographic.
