I think Hillary might face more Republican gridlock than Obama. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Ah, the naivete of youth.

Barak Obama draws thousands, but hundreds can't get in KeyArena

Officials closed the entrances to KeyArena at about 11 this morning, turning away thousands who had gathered to hear presidential candidate Sen. Barack Obama speak at noon.

Kathryn Hughes, a senior at Gig Harbor High School, got inside while her friend Hunter Burton, also a Gig Harbor senior, was outside, pressed against a KeyArena glass door.

Burton said he was "furious beyond words. Democracy should not be limited by a stadium's capacity."

Smithee comment: Sorry Mr. Burton, the properties of matter and its relationship with mass and space are not altered by Barak Obama's campaign for the presidency.

I think he'd match up with Jack Kennedy's experience.

Not hardly.

Kennedy had six years as a US Representative and seven years as a US Senator. Military time as a bonus.

Obama had six years as a state senator and three years as a US Senator before announcing his candidacy. No military time, but plenty of naivete as a bonus.

Kennedy was a strong anti-Communist.

I hate to say it, but he was a weak little playboy. Bubba only wishes he could have engaged in 1% of JFK's reckless behavior. Bedding a Mafia Mistress while President. God!

We complain about the MSM coverup on Dems today, but what they did during JFK's Presidency was criminal.
