Obama's Got The Bill Factor [ "Barf"ack Obama Alert! ]

The one person whom Hillary thought she would never — could never — have to run against was, of course, Bill. It was Bill, in fact, who consoled her last winter, after she was less than inspiring at Coretta Scott King’s funeral, with the observation that she would never have to face a charmer like himself. He told her — trying to be reassuring, I guess: "You don’t have to be better at this than me. You got to be better than whoever." But, oh dear, who would have thought the "whoever" she now may face would be so reminiscent of the Bill Clinton who unexpectedly captured the Democratic nomination in 1992.

Obama has several components of the Bill Factor. First of all there is the Great Personal Story. Bill's was "poor boy from Arkansas makes good," as he used his smarts to go to Georgetown, Yale, and win a Rhodes scholarship to Oxford. Obama's is much the same, another tale of "poor boy makes good" that sees the protagonist end up at an Ivy League school. And Obama was the first black president of The Harvard Law Review, which is as impressive as winning a Rhodes.

If he's really got the "Bill Factor"--- is it boxers, or briefs?

In my opinion this shows the true colors of Democrats as true racists. I do not like Obama but Hitlery will do everything she can to discredit him. Right! She just shows how she does not give a damn about her party or the country, she is so power hungery that its discusting.

Truth is, I kind of like Obama because he's personable. That's it, though.

Actually, Obama attended Hawaii's most expensive private school and was largely raised by his middle class white grandparents. Yes, his African dad did abandon him when he was still a toddler. But alas that's hardly unique or "compelling."
Those who know how the world works will understand that his admissions/scholarships to Ivy Schools was not unrelated to his prudent decision to embrace (exploit?) the "black" side of his identity. The same decision explains the media's shameless non-stop promotion of Obama. Of course the fact that Obama hails from the extreme left wing of the Democratic Party is also a factor in the MSM push. Confusing form and substance, the media has deliberately masked OBAMA'S extremist views, cloaking them in the form of his modest, engaging persona.

See how personable you think he is after you read his record in Illinois.
