Obama is a wimp.
Why would anyone want Obama as Commander-in-Chief?
The man is afraid of an itty bitty 30 second TV ad.
WIMP.

Report
For several days, simple questions have been posed to the the Barack Obama campaign:
Has anyone associated with their campaign met with Canadian officials? Has anyone associated with their campaign offered private assurances to Canadian officials downplaying Obama's anti-NAFTA rhetoric?
In response, the Obama campaign has offered several carefully parsed non-denials.
But this evening new information has come to light: Senator Obama’s top economic advisor admitted to meeting with the Canadian consul general but has refused to deny that he discussed NAFTA in this meeting.
This raises a host of additional questions: Now that it is clear that this meeting occurred, what was discussed? Did Austin Goolsbee or any Obama official downplay Senator Obama's anti-NAFTA rhetoric to Canadian officials? Why have they have been trying to give the impression that no conversation ever occurred?
Voters deserve more than empty rhetoric and Senator Obama and his campaign should finally co

It's obvious that most of you people on this board didn't watch the last 2 debates nor have you been following these candidated too carefully.
I've been following these elections closely because I am an undecided texas voter. I want to know which candidate most identify with my concerns. At this point, it seems to be Obama. The claim that he lacks experience is unfounded because he has been in public life for some time. Maybe not on the national level, but the process is the same. He has shown that he can get things done. Just look at his campaign. A few years ago, nobody had heard of him. Today his name is quite possibly a household name. Mostly everybody knows who Barack Obama is today. He has moved mountains with sheer determination and gained the backing of millions of American citizens. This shows his ability to lead and accompllish things.

I can go on and on about the news surrounding Obama. But when the news is positive that's what will be reported and vice-versa. If the news is negative that's what will be reported. In hillary's case that's what has been going on because she was the hier apparent to the democratic nomination.
But I think it is ironic how all the media has reduced its coverage of Obama and now has started reporting more on the Clintion campaign. This is apparent to me since she claimed that she was being unfairly treated by the media.
She hasn't been. Her campaign simply hasn't been creating the exciting news that the Obama campaign has generated. Simple as that.

This message is in response to cmonag1061:
I disagree with your position about the degree/extent of media coverage that Hillary and Barack are getting. I don't beleive that the media is reporting anything other than what's actuallly going on with these candidates. Whenever there is something positive happening with either candidate, that is reported on. Conversely, whenever there is something not so good happening with them that is reported on as well. It just so happens that Obama has been generating more positive news than Hillary. The media has reported on the unprecedented crowds that Obama has drawn. Many pundits say that more people has been brought into the democratic process than they can remember. The media is reporting the unprecedented amounts of money the Obama campaign is raising and the number of people that are contributing to it. It would be remiss if I don't mention how the media continue to exclaim his lack of experience as a negative aspect of his possible presidenc

admit I am disappointed in my black friends who were for Hillary and said Bill was the man...................and now with O'Bama......and mean spirited and venomous to the Clintons...Hey Sam.....you know who I'm talking about!!! ..........Apparently race is more important to you than friendship and loyalty!!!! Again I say ............for God's sake...that's what happened in Nazi Germany!!!!!!
O'Bama has no story because he did not make any!!!! He passed on the tough contraversial votes in the Senate...and only voted on the safe easy stuff!!! Afraid to take a stand...............he is NOT the MAN!!!!..............A dreamer(O'Bama) and a realist(Hillary)!!!.........words(O'Bama)........action(HILLARY)!!!!! NO DOUBT.........vote for HILLARY!!!!!

I’m absolutely terrified about Obama’s inability to handle National Security (long before the ad came out). Obama has no wisdom, no insight, poor judgment, lacks experience and has no depth of knowledge on National Security and military issues. He misunderstands the intricacies of international relations and the role of the military in protecting us from the outside. Obama likes to point out that he spoke against the war in Iraq. But people should ask themselves --- if the information available at the time, led MOST to believe that American’s were at great risk…..why didn’t he vote for the war? Perhaps his judgment wasn’t as sound as he wants us to believe. It’s easy to second guess after the fact. Clinton and others agree that had they know what they know now they may have voted differently. And, of course, anti-war Obama glosses over the fact that he has continued to support the war with his votes.
Obama has been absent and ineffective in his role as a subcommittee
