Enough with the Obama hype, people. We get it. Even Obama himself is saying it's too much. He hasn't earned it. Time for Obama to back up the hype with substance, like what are his ideas and is he running or not? because if he is running this is the time to tell us, at the max of his hype.

For all we know the GOP is helping to hype him. Why would they?
Harold Ford. Ford is not that different from Obama and they beat him with a single sleazy ad.

I know for a fact the GOP has been hyping Hillary for a long time. They want to run against her. Because McCain beats Hillary in every poll I've ever seen. and so would Romney.

Might the GOP also want to run against Obama? Yes. Because they are cynical pragmatists to the extreme. They know they can challenge Obama to solve the country's problems and he won't have many (if any) new ideas except very liberal ones. So then all he has is youth, charisma and the fact that he's half-black with a Muslim "enemy" sounding name. Then they beat him by scaring Middle America. Those bastards know how.

Who does the GOP fear the most? Probably Gore, but definitely also Kerry, Bayh, Biden and maybe Edwards too. Richardson they're not afraid of. Clark and Vilsack are longshots. The reason they still fear Kerry is because they know the cheating and smear campaign won't work a second time. And without that, they lose, especially if Kerry can convince the country that all the bombs thrown at him in the past were total BS. And they were. The GOP also feared Warner, but he's out. Unfortunately.
