Isn't that an interesting question ? He may be quite serious, but my horseback estimate is that he is insufficiently experienced and a little too left to be President. Perhaps his real goal is the vice presidential nomination.<br /><br />I suspect there are lots of people who want to see Senator Clinton weakened, and dent the feeling of inevitability that's her big asset. She seems to only be getting started with an Iowa organization, and she may have problems there, especially now that Governor Vilsack is trying to do the favorite son thing. <br /><br />But I wonder who is doing the denting. The tell will be which, if any professionals get behind the Obama effort -- I'd be looking for people associated with the Al Gore organization. The former Vice President bears watching, as does Senator Kerry's old running mate.El Jefe Maximohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14661511063910659377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8632546.post-17253797470778671432006-12-01T18:17:00.000-06:002006-12-01T18:17:00.000-06:00El Jeffe

His election was more an anointing than a vote. <br /><br />In office, he was liked by every one, considered a moderate democrat, and had one of the most left oriented vote records.<br /><br />He became a Senator when both his primary and general elections candidates became mired in scandal. Again he is liked by every one, considered a moderate democrat, and has one of the most left oriented vote records. Reported to the left of Durban?!<br /><br />He has never run in a serious statewide election. His one election campaign against serious opposition was a flop. He has never been the principle sponsor of an bill. He has never held an executive position larger than his own campaign staff.<br /><br />Except for being photogenic he does not have the basic experience qualifications to be a presidential canidate.<br /><br /><br />For more. The author is one of the sharpest political commentators in the Chicago area. I’d call him a Paleo-conservative except he rejects the title. <br /><br /><a Href=http://tomroeser.com/blogview.asp?blogID=23134>The Barack Obama Phenomenon: If the Democrats Were Smart, They’d Nominate Him.
