In The Tank

We've been saying all along that Senator Obama's record has not been examined. We've been pooh-poohed.

We've been saying that Senator Clinton has not run a vicious campaign. We've run up against the "conventional wisdom" and the talking points of everyone from Maureen Dowd to Keith Olbmermann.

Who was right?

If Senator Obama's record had been even slightly looked at by a not completely in love with him press this story of the Church of our Lady of Perpetual Resentment (come for the pancake breakfast, stay for the rage) would have come out months ago.

If Clinton had been running a vicious campaign this story would have come out months ago.

When I talk to regular people, either pro Hillary, undecided or right they all say the same thing - the press is in the tank for Obama. They haven't bothered to get past his soaring renditions of Duval Patrick's greatest hits (he's our own Celene Dion) to look at what he's done.

They are too busy buying into his line that Senator Clinton needs to disclose her tax returns to ask him, hey if you said you made a bone headed decision to allow Resko to help you buy your house will you give it back and how can we trust you to make good decisions once elected? They believe him when he says her back hurt his knife and she should apologize.

John brought up a great point this evening that Senator Obama has not made a case for why he should be Commander in Chief. He campaigns on amorphous promises of change without offering us any concrete evidence that he can handle the job.

If he gets the nomination John McCain will be our next president. I think it was Molly who commented that you can't run a man who went to a church who's preacher said God Damn American from the pulpit against a man who fought in a war and was a POW for five years.

Super Delegates unite - we have nothing to lose but the Presidency.
