I was surprised a couple of weeks ago to hear Brit Hume gushing over Obama (but he may have just meant that he finds him a likeable person).

Ben Stein in the Feb. 2007 issue of The American Spectator eviscerates Obama:

"...what is this insanity about Barack Obama? He's nobody. Nothing. Just a small town ward heeler who has already been busted taking bribes, has no experience at all -- NONE -- on the world stage or in defense or anything else. Could we be crazy enough to even consider him as president? Have we gone totally nuts? Hillary is a responsible politician with broad experience. I do not want to see her elected, but she's Winston Churchill compared to Obama."

My thoughts exactly. Except for the Hillary being better bit. She's more sincere, that's for sure. But who's to say she's really more responsible.

I say they're both rotten.

Richardson seems to be the only responsible candidate in the Dem field to me.

Of the Democrats' top three, I marginally prefer Edwards for having a platform (albeit left) and not being a gimmick candidate. But it's all trash.
