Without a teleprompter, Obama is like a lost child wandering the shopping mall looking for his mommy.

The reality is that this supposed great intellect Obama collapsed like a house of cards from simple questions posed by old Charlie and George at the ABC debate. Then for the next 12 days, Obama refused to take questions from reporters traveling with him on his plane.

He hid and pouted.

These are not the characteristics of someone who is a strong leader capable of dealing with Iran, al Qaeda, etc. On the contrary these are the characteristics of someone who is weak, frightened and lacks the emotional fortitude to be president.

Obama is the 90-pound weakling who will get sand kicked in his face by the bullies on the beach named Ahmadinejad, Chavez, etc. etc. etc.

He's a first-rate con man, indeed, but nothing close to presidential material. Chavez and the rest of the world's dictators are dying for this guy to be elected so they can twist him like a Gumby and Pokey toy.

I'm sure Michelle has already told him who he will choose as VP.

"And Barack!! Don't drop your lunchbox on the sidewalk and break your Thermos again!" Michelle said as she patted him on the head and sent him on his way.

"Yes, momma," Barack said sheepishly as his eyes fell to the floor.

But I thought Obama was "a new kind of politics?" You mean Obama is just another John Kerry?

LOL

Edwards has an opportunity to become the only VP candidate who has been on the losing ticket in two consecutive elections.

He needs to realize his support is African Americans and elists. The bread and butter Democrats do not support him. The victories he had over Clinton were for the most part not landsl;ides. He did not win the huge states of CA NY,TX,PA, OH. He won mainly the small states and Illinois and Georgia. The largest except Chicago metro areas went to Hillary. His support is limited. He is a elistist, who wants to change the favric of America to his Socialist views. He does not care about blue collar workers, outsource is what he wants. One minute he against NAFTA the next he is for. IOne minute who won't salute the flag, but when pushed he wears the flag pin again. What are his real motives and goals do we know? Is this all for the media and show? When does the Real Baarack come out? Once he is elected we find out who he is. Then it is to late. Tell is NOW BARACK don't hide behind the media?

Obama is limping, bleeing and gasping for air as he crawls across the finish line.

He has lost 7 of the last 10 contests including losing a swing state (again) Tuesday by a whopping 35 percent.

As it turns out, Obama has proven himself a better divider than uniter. In reality, Obama is a deeply flawed candidate without a track record of uniting anything.
Obama All the way

I am a woman and I voted for him, white blue collard workers voted for him uneducated people voted for him and you are right African American people came out in record numbers and voted for him. If you want someone to come in and steal the election like Bush did, then Hillary is your woman.

Barack Obama (B.O.) will nominate me. While we both
stink, as President of Crooked County I have a
track record of...hiring cronies
increasing taxes
telling lies without blinking
B.O. has previously endorsed me...so much for
his good judgment.

If this is any indication how Baby is going to run the country, no thanks. We need someone to rein back in the spending, not propose more hundred billion / trillion nanny state big bankrupt failing government programs.

Michelle on the stump - "But up until a few years ago, we were struggling to figure out how we would save for our kids."

Oh yeah, even after putting $111,000 down on your condo?

“We left corporate America, which is a lot of what we’re asking young people to do. Don’t go into corporate America. You know, become teachers. Work for the community. Be social workers. Be a nurse. Those are the careers that we need, and we’re encouraging our young people to do that. But if you make that choice, as we did, to move out of the money-making industry into the helping industry, then your salaries respond...many of our bright stars are going into corporate law or hedge-fund management.”

So I guess we should take a different route than you Michelle, because you are such a good person, making your $300k from a hospital and not from the evil corporate America.

Baby made his millions from selling books - who helped - you guessed it, evil corporate America.

They have been making $200k + since 2000, yet...
Michelle claims, "I remember those days clearly, sweating to get that mail. That collection agency, the loan debt people calling you telling you that you've got a few more days before you're in trouble."

What a lying hag!

A Tribune article states,(Michelle Obama's claim) "doesn't come with documentation to back up her story about financial hardship. Asked to provide evidence of the Obamas' recent debt or contact from bill collectors, a campaign aide said the family was trying to find the records in response to a Tribune request last week but could not do so immediately."

Obama and wife are total scum.

You have been rooked by these lying worthless politicians named the Obamas.

Congratulations...you'be been had - now drink that Kool-Aid.

Mostly worthless comments, thanks everyone.

Obviously, Sen. Obama needs to pick someone who won't bring her husband to every party to steal the show, especially if he truly is a vote for change. I think that he would do well picking someone like Janet Napolitano (Gov. of AZ) or Kathleen Sebelius (Gov. of KS) or Gen. Wesley Clark. Those would be my top picks.
