3. i'm donning my flame proof suit but truly I don't get this whole Obama
thing
he's a fine young man and smart as all get out from all appearances but why all the buzz on this guy? I don't find him a superlative speaker and he looks like a kid who needs some more maturity to really play with the big boys and girls
i prefer Claire McCaskill or even Harold Ford Jr (in spite of his sad loss) over Obama as far as fresh faces go
I have been loath to say this, but there it is....
While there was some 'talk' about him running, Oprah asked him to run on her show and did so in a tone of "You'ld be MY pick...PLEASE? PRETTY PLEASE?". That sort of launched it from just inside the Beltway talk to what we now have.
He's won one election for sweet merciful craps sake! And against a Repuke in a sex scandal with the Borg lady! He needs to do some important shit in the Senate and cool his jets for a few years. Head a few commissions like Kerry did. Make a track record of excellence.
