This what I wrote about Obama Feb 5, 2007
Obama is a political hologram......fascinating to watch, but ultimately, there is nothing of substance.
dddooo, you may have a point about Hillary ultimately losing because of her vote on Iraq, but I don't think its as direct as that. Iraq was the foil Obama was able to use to distinguish himself from the other candidates, and either he is one lucky guy, or he used that difference well to his advantage. But that distinction mainly appealed to the extreme left wing of party, which has an inordinate share of power, given their size. I think Obamas appeal is much broader than that. Hell, even some Republicans I know are thinking about voting for him. Policy wise, what difference is there between Hillary and Obama?
he should enjoy the free ride he is getting right now, because once he's the nominee, the gloves will come off, as well they should.
