A Democratic donnybrook

The debate was rich in sound and fury, but did little lasting damage to unruffled frontrunner Barack Obama.

    THE PROBLEM WITH OBAMA....

    is exactly what you just said: no one remembers what he said.

    I mean, boyfriend, your lips are moving but you ain't saying nothin'!

    It isn't a trick - the guy just isn't saying nothing; no policy ideas, nothing. He isn't saying anything. Let me repeat this just in case the media have not yet heard: Obama isn't saying anything.

    How far do we travel with this guy who says nothing - and yet he has somehow managed to fool people into thinking that he is actually saying something.

    Obama isn't going to change politics-as-we-know-it in 4 years. Does anyone think the GOP is going to lay down at this guys' feet because he "wants to change politics as we know it?" Are we nominating a "cause freak" or a President?

    The United Stateis is in big trouble - the world is totally screwed up and this guy is lecturing us on playing nice with one another? Bitch, please! I am sick of platitudes - I want ACTION not pretty words. Keep voting for Obama, Democrats, and you can kiss another presidential election goodbye.
