Thanks for sticking to the subject Ross. Didn't know Hilliam determined who gets invited to the National Press Club. I was thinking higher up the food chain as my premise all along is that Mr Obama was merely in the race to severely diminish the focus on Hilliam(as many here agree: that she really is unpalatable, on so many levels).

That said, I agree that Mr Obama has proved far more popular than his handlers or his ambition may have expected( quite apart the lack of experience(which I think is a rather silly argument as the President is little more than a figurehead-the accepted wisdom during the RayGun Administration anyhow:)).

Certainly, he is being groomed(perhaps for a fall(as the Rev Wright ain't going nowhere)). And personally, I think he would gain the Presidency should he receive the nomination. Primarily because Americans across the spectrum do want change, even if it is predominantly unspecified by this candidate. Too, because a good portion of us realize McNasty is Manchurian.

Love the tag line Mick, my hearing ain't that good but thankfully the lentils are evolving toward the Sun anyway.

Dug the first post MB.

Au revoir
