For a Democrat, he's not so bad.
Election night 2004 I thought Obama was a bit of a beacon of hope in the Democratic Party. While the majority of the Democrats were whining about another Bush victory and the woes sure to follow - Obama was appealing for the country to accept the results, work together and move forward.
At least he isn't from the Michael Moore contingency. Not my first choice for President, but looking over the Democrats options - he is actually pretty high up there IMO.
I'm just sayin'.... who else are you looking at from the Dems beyond Hillary?
If the other Democrats you're talking about are Ted Kennedy, Barbara Boxer, and Hillary Clinton, then you might have a point in saying he's not so bad. But I can only say 'might', because if you look at his voting record, then is there really that much difference between them?
In fact, Obama is more of a threat because he packages his far-left ideology in an appealing, media-friendly cover. A President Obama would easily be the most leftwing Presidency of modern times.
Man. That is so bleak.
