Obama's dignity and Hillary's smugness
When faced with the Rev. Wright story, with it's potential to destroy his campaign, Obama responded thoughtfully and with dignity. When faced with being caught in an outright lie, with an equally devastating potential to her campaign, Hillary responded with smugness, and an attempt to deflect by trying to revive the Rev. Wright story. Now, what kind of leader do we want in the White House?

2. Hillary thought that Cheney's 'So?' thing worked pretty great for him....
she just didn't realize that he wasn't trying to get elected to squat and couldn't care less about the American people let alone any voters....

this little 'Bosnia thing' reveals something publicly that cute or snide or attempted-humor remarks are not making go away....

her experience is in question, as is her honesty, as is her blind desire to get the Presidency, as is her integrity....

4. Guess that is why she had to resort to the Tonya Harding approach...
And try to revive the Rev. Wright story.
