“There was something about Senator Obama that I found really fresh and exciting,” she said. “I like how positive he has been.”

When kids talk like this you understand where they are coming from. But in what kind of culture do political pros talk like this? Do any of them seriously think that Barack Obama has the experience to be President? Can they remember the way they once swooned over Bill Clinton back in 1992? Can they remember the pratfalls that the new Clinton administration took in 1993 and 1994, from which it never really recovered? And Clinton was well prepared compared to Obama!

They sound like the kind of woman who falls for impossible men, not once, but over and over, never learning anything from the experience.
