Patricia- do you have any doubts about the kind of SC justices McCain will pick? Obama, even if "unexperienced" has at least been to law school- and he took con law, and he edited the law review. Any doubt about what kind of justices he would pick? Not the same kind as McCain. Don't you have daughters? I guess choice isn't at the top of your issues, but isn't it somewhere?

Patricia; He's too junior............I have been saying that for months I could have understood that argument two days agao - now it makes no sense. Palin who could be one heartbeat away from running the biggest most powerful country in the world is waaaaaaay more junior than Obama. To argue otherwise is silly. steve

>>people in Chicago claim he has been running for Pres all his life.<< Patricia - Just curious - do you not see that Hillary was also running for President her whole life? I've been told by people who should know that Bill and Hillary had the plan of him being Pres first, and her following, way back when they were in law school. I believe that's why she was given the job of heading up the health insurance effort as soon as Bill was in office. I think they wanted her to become known as a "working" First Lady, which would give her greater credibility when she ran for President. The way they shopped around for a state that would elect her to the Senate is another good sign of the ambition that has motivated HIllary since the very beginning. Is this a bad thing? I don't think so. Most of our Presidents have been people who set high goals for themselves early on, and let nothing stand in the way of their ambitions. It's in the nature of the job, and the horrific path one has to take to get it. But if you think that kind of ambition is a bad thing in Obama, I don't see how you can give HIllary and Bill a pass on it. - Allen
