(plus: he's young, he's multiracial and he went to Harvard)

Failed to mention his father was a muslim mau mau and his mother a communist.

[ClearCase_guy]

The Godless party may have a tough hill to climb here...

[Carling]

Obama screams MILQUETOAST to me.

[CAWats]

It will never happen. Why? The dimwits will never give up abortion.

[utahagen]

Obama and other liberals thinks evangelicals are stupid, that they'll be placated if the Democrats say, "We know you don't like abortion and we really, really respect that...but we're going to work hard to keep abortion legal anyway and, by the way, God Bless America."

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

This guy is a big fat phony and is being pimped by the stupid MSM who think Americans are a bunch of sheep looking for the next MLK Jr. It's beyond disgusting.

plus: he's young, he's multiracial and he went to Harvard

Like a smarter version of Harold Ford Jr.

[fatnotlazy]

I don't see what is so wonderful about him. But on the other hand, he's a slight cut above the usual Dem idiots.

[RexBeach]

When your number one political priority is maintaining the ability for women to have abortion on demand, how do you square that with going after the evangelical vote? Simple. You don't.

Sorry, Obama. Nice try. Give us a ring when you get a better idea.

Bub-bye!

Like a smarter version of Harold Ford Jr.

That's setting the bar pretty darn low, if'n you ask me. :-)

[presidio9]

Did I forget to mention that John F. Kerry was in Vietnam?

[Froufrou]

Like you'd expect me to have anything different to say about him - blecht...there's nothing quite so in-yer-face as a black playing the reverse race card...!!!

[inkling]

The reason Obama is popular is because he often talks like a conservative. Now if we could just get more Republicans to talk like conservatives, we would have a filibuster-proof majority in the Senate next year.

[MrEdd]

/agree

[Red Badger]

That will not sit well with their DUmmie base...........

[newconhere]

I think he is a force to be reckon with. He might not be all that but the MSM can make him be whatever they want. He makes me nervous.

[MikeA]

Yes, but did he serve in Vietnam?

[hsalaw]

Obama coupled his advice with a warning. "Nothing is more transparent than inauthentic expressions of faith: the politician who shows up at a black church around election time and claps — off rhythm — to the gospel choir."

I think he's talking about Clinton and Kerry - talk about "inauthentic."

[Gay State Conservative]

To me,he'll always be what the senior Senator from Chappaquiddick once called him (while in one his drunken stupors,no doubt)....

"Osama Obama"
