Democratic Debate: Obama getting the shaft


I am sitting here watching tonight's debate between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. At this point it feels like Charlie Gibson and George Stephanopoulos are railroading Obama right and left. It's sad really. I am actually feeling angry, because Ms. Clinton just has to sit there, and watch them lob bombs into Obama's lap. This debate feels like a lo-fi brow beating. There is alot at stake in this debate, every poll, every article and news report I see says that the Pennsylvania Democratic Primary will basically pick the Candidate.

How can these guys sit there and lead this attack? For the first hour of this debate there was not a question about a real issue. All ABC wanted to talk about was Obama's pastor and the comments His pastor has made in the past.

It's also funny how when confronted, Obama actually will defend, Hillary, and extend grace to her. On the other Hand, it feels a little like Ms. Hillary jumps in and hits Obama right after Charlie or George pops off one of those confrontational attacks.

I like Obama. After reading this, i am sure thats evident. If you Live in PA please go out and vote on April 22nd.

Why Obama's gonna lose.


Obama is going to lose, because I plan to vote for him. With my track record, the outlook for Barack Obama is not good. I vote for the loser every time (excpet clinton's 2nd term). The last presidential campaign season, I wanted to vote for Howard Dean but he went nuts at a campaign rally and never recovered. This time around, I have High hopes. But I am also a life long Miami Dolphins fan (can't shake it) I am accustomed to pulling for the underdog only to be let down each and every time. I was pulling for HD dvd. I actually purchased a DIVX player from circuit city when they first hit the market. I thought Arrested development was going to make it...So you see i am ever the optimist, but am ready for dissappointment. Good luck Barack, i hope my vote does not work against you.
