What if Obama is Osama who shaved his beard? Then what do we do??

Ghoulish Delight · 02-05-2008, 05:38 PM

Obama takes Georgia. Early exit polling has it 64% Obama, 30% Hillary, 4% Edwards.

(MBC...is it just me or did you from one post to the next change your criteria from "who'd be the better President?" to "who'd be the better candidate/most electable?" Don't take this as attacking your decision, I just thought I'd point it out because you're obviously conflicted and think it might help you to notice that you might be comparing apples to oranges)

Yeah, I tried to edit it so it was clearer. As I was writing my second post, I simply realized that there was more to my decision than my earlier response. The combination of both responses is more on the money. And, to be honest, I am still trying to sort out my decision so, hell, ask me tomorrow and I might tell you something different.

Really, I'm not usually this wishy-washy in the election process.

Well, MBC, we may be in the same boat soon enough, but for now there's only one specific set of circumstances that would make me vote for Hillary.

She'd have to be the Democratic nominee.

Ghoulish Delight · 02-05-2008, 05:54 PM

As for Obama's ability to stand up to the B.S., I look to how he's handled crap like the insane media freakout over his early campaign statements on Iran, or the blatant race-baiting by the media and/or Hillary's campaign staff (I won't pin it on Hillary herself). Sure, it's not the highly target personal attacks of the swiftboat nature, but so far nothing has shaken him in the slightest, he's dealt with it all without missing a beat.

Strangler Lewis · 02-05-2008, 06:01 PM

What's round on the end? Ba in the middle?

And then, well, ma on the other end?

Obama.

Frankly, it's a coinflip, as to qualifications, but if Hillary runs against McCain, it will be swift boats and Jane Fonda all over again.

Plus, Obama has the nicest, most normal family of the four lead candidates. A clear advantage over the divorced McCain and his younger wife and Romney's perversely perfect family with the five quarterback sons.

Obama vs. Romney would be interesting because I don't think they like each other. At the staged group hug at the last seriatim debate I watched, I thought the vibe between them was pretty frosty.

Hillary is a total control freak. If someone in her campaign did it without her knowledge, they'd be at the bottom of some ocean somewhere wearing the proverbial concrete shoes.

I have no doubt Obama would be a better President than Hillary, but that's like saying a Mexican hairless cat is better looking than a Chinese hairless dog. Yeah, one has to be better looking, but I'm not picking up either.

BarTopDancer · 02-05-2008, 07:01 PM

I voted. Obama and didn't think twice.

MBC, I read your post before I left the office. I admire your inner-thoughts and for going with your opinion of who will be best. In the end that is all we can do.

wolfy999 · 02-05-2008, 07:08 PM

Obama here also...just don't want to have Bill return via Hillary.
