Obama vs. Obama (VIDEO)
More video evidence that “hope” and “change” really mean “typical politician.” The man has flip flopped more than John Kerry did in 2004.

Timing is Everything
Here’s a comment left by David Adams on today’s Featured Debate:
The content of a person’s character is especially important when they’re seeking to be president of ALL Americans.
Obama is guilty of poor judgement in choosing and sticking with his ‘friends’, but his missteps are not gaffes - not the mispronounciation or misapplication of a word or two; his statements reflect his true character.
Right on the money David. It’s just astonishing that someone can run for the presidency for 15 months before the truth starts to leak out.
Inevitably though, it will. The Republicans got lucky in having the real Obama start to leak out with such perfect timing. Think about it, he’s still going to be the nominee (most likely), but since Hillary is still sorta kinda in it, she gets to attack him and expose him instead of McCain having to do it, which would be a much more difficult and risky proposition. Obama will come out of the Democratic contest bloodied up and will have a hard time convincing voters that he can truly transcend partisan politics, a central selling point of his campaign. He’ll be just another politician by the time Hillary is done with him.
Of course, as we’ve seen thus far in this incredible campaign, the tide will turn not once but several times between now and November. Nominating Obama simply makes it much more likely that the tide will turn in favor of McCain just as millions of Americans head to the polls.
