Mindmeld, > I can tell you are going to be on bitter person when Obama is President. You should start getting used to the idea now so that it will go easier on you. Unless Obama can recover once again from train-wreck Wright, Hillary will have a convincing case to present to the undecided superdelegates. Tenchusatsu

You simply don't have the facts straight when you say Obama has no accomplishments. He has a 20 year history of accomplishments. You just choose to selectively view what an accomplishment is to the benefit of your chosen candidate. I've asked you and others, repeatedly, to name some of his accomplishments. What have you said in response? a) He was a "community organizer" in Chicago. The outcome? "Despite some meaningful victories, the work of Obama--and hundreds of other organizers--did not transform the South Side or restore lost industries." thenation.com Essentially, he failed as a community organizer. b) He graduated from Harvard and was on the Law Review. Something hundreds do every year. No big deal. c) Organized a campaign. Which is currently in disarray. There are no accomplishments. Sorry, they're just not there. You cannot point to a single thing this man has done which remotely suggests he is qualified to be President of the United States. He has no military record. He has not held public office for a significant period of time. Has no record of political courage, WHATSOEVER. Has not one significant legislative accomplishment he can call his own. Never been a governor. Never run a business. He has never done ANY of the things that we normally expect a president to have done. In fact, the ONLY real accomplishment is that he is a great public speaker. That, MM, is not enough.
