How Hillary more qualified?

She's been involved in both state and federal politics for a very long time. She can state what her views are and what she wants do clearly. She has connections on an international level, as well. Mind you these things won't get me to vote for her, but she clearly has been around the block many more times than Obama.

So, he switched strategies, and returned to the motivational speaking style that helped him attratc supporters in the beginning. If you want to win, you do what works.

So is this just a strategy to get elected? That's kind of shallow, don't you think?

There will be plenty of time for discussing details on the issues when he makes McCain look like a fool during the debates!

Yeah, just like Gore was going to do to Bush and Bush cleaned his clock. :lol Wait until he lays out his immigration program. :eek

Quote:
Can you imagine McCain, who is not a good speaker, going up against a charismatic personality like Obama? McCain will be creamed, and the Left will rise again!

We shall see.
