Steve, <<Well there's a real quality to look for in our president. Not someone who wanst to solve problems we all face - but one who can win a knife fight. Okay, I give that to Carville and the other Hillary followers - she is best at knife fighting. Geeeeez! >> Is it really bad to have someone who is both smart and tough in the White House? Is that a good quality to have when someone is negotiating with our enemies, to have the projection of toughness and strength? Or is it that men are afraid of a tough woman with a knife since the Obama supporters are looking to take this thing literally and not figuratively like it was intended? If Obama is going to talk with the despots in the world like he claimed in one of the debates, I would hope he has all his knives on display and know how to use them but doesn't need them. WWII and other incidents showed that you can't always negotiate the problems of the world away. But in the grander scheme of things,is it really in the best interest of the party to insult all Clinton's supporters in this way? Didn't Dale and other Obama supporters get upset at being called delusional? But I guess this is ok because it is about Clinton. This is the stuff that will divide the party and cause Clinton supporters to think about not supporting Obama. Neal
