"Rudimentary awareness of the world around him?"

The man shows better knowledge of the world around him than you do. What's John McCain's executive experience? Hugging GW Bush?

Hah -- I remember reading this in a blog recently, but unfortunately can't seem to find it again to quote verbatim.

What "experience" of McCain's makes him qualified to be Commander In Chief? 1) Former POW? 2) Crashing a plane? 3) Being WRRRROOOOONNG about every single thing in Iraq?

That’s a nice troll, but he has as much executive experience as John McCain and Hillary Clinton, and he certainly proposes plenty of “contrete policies”. The idea that he doesn’t is a talking point, not an assertion based on fact.

Uhm... cute, but what he lacks is executive experience, concrete policies, and even the most rudimentary awareness of the world around him.

He'd be a great talk show host.

POTUS? come on. That's ridiculous.

His success is entirely a byproduct of hillary's naked ambition and the American People's well earned clinton fatigue.

What you shouldn't forget, though, is that this absence of negative emotion is exactly what is driving his supporters towards him. I believe there are tons of people who are sick and tired of constantly being kept fearful and they seem to all be flocking to Obama.

I think your analytical skills are excellent, to say the least. Nevertheless, I feel that Obama would not be true to his authentic self if he were to do as the others do. I keep thinking he should be able to get in, as himself, some way. That may smack of magical thinking or predestiny; yet I feel there is truth in it. His difference should somehow be “blessed” with success. . .

Great analysis. Thanks for posting it.

I'm for Obama too. For his running mate my ideal pick for him Jim Webb (D) VA. As a former Secretary of the Navy under Reagan I think would bring in a lot of dissatisfied Republicans.

But then again, I'm no analyst either.
