I didn't say he wasn't slick. I said Obama was too manufactured. He's talking so much about "change", but I've yet to hear any specific plans. He's just being a media darling and saying **** that people want to hear. Where's his universal healthcare plan? At least Edwards has one. Obama says he does, but I haven't heard any specifics other than "if you don't have it now, you will!"

Honestly, I think all of the choices on every side suck.

He lays out his health care plan in his book "The Audacity of Hope" I'll bet if JFK were around today he'd seem like a media darling as well.

They would eat him alive today because he could not keep his penis in his pants and the press was WAY more respectful then - before the dawn of 24 hour news and cameras everywhere.

hahaha.. I think most presidents would be eaten alive by the media today. Even the earliest ones were knocking up their slaves and such.

when you think about it, you have to be some kind of freak to want to be president. hungry for power and willing to be the party's puppet.. ahhh, the combination for success.
