		<description>&lt;b&gt;Dennis Sanders Says:&lt;/b&gt;

&lt;i&gt;&quot;Obama doesnâ€™t have a whole lot of foriegn policy experience and yet people think heâ€™s a genius.&quot;&lt;/i&gt;

This is actually the first sentence I&#039;ve ever written that contains the words &quot;Obama&quot; and &quot;genius.&quot;  No president, past or current, has ever been a &quot;genius,&quot; except maybe for Jefferson.  George Washington?  I might say &quot;inspiring&quot; and &quot;innovative,&quot; but I don&#039;t know about &quot;genius.&quot;

Do you think every single one of Obama&#039;s supporters in April 2008... supported him in November or October of 2007?  I wouldn&#039;t think so--I would think that a lot of them started out supporting other candidates, as as those candidates left the race, they swung their vote over to Obama, rather than Hillary.

Despite what anyone might think, the plain, &quot;unspun&quot; truth is that a lot of people are backing Obama today... because of the simple fact that they prefer him over Clinton, McCain, Nader, or some other, lesser-known candidate.

But then... this is a thread about &lt;i&gt;Condi Rice&lt;/i&gt;, isn&#039;t it?  Why would somebody bring up Obama?  &#039;Cause they have nothing better to do, nothing more constructive to say?  &lt;a&gt;Well, nothing surprising about that, really... it was predicted.&lt;/a&gt;

As to Condi as V.P.... can somebody think of a better option for McCain?

		<description>Troll?  I point to Obama&#039;s relationship with a mass murderer, a terrorist, and a racists and you call me a &quot;troll.&quot;  The backdrop being about a candidate that claims &quot;good judgment&quot; and espouses some etheral political camelot of bi-partisan cooperation and hope, exc. while at the same time propagating a same-old class resentment that has fueled far-leftist ideologs since 1917.  

Okay, I may be a troll, but you&#039;re a lobotomized hack fraudulently masqerading as a &quot;centrist.&quot;  And as your name would suggest, you may believe is something, but you have no idea what it is -- which in political terms equals a sheep -- easily led and conned.  So by all means, we should give deference to your insight -- whatever that maybe.</description>

		<description>Hey, JG, why don&#039;t you post the perverbial cartoon of a big-lipped monkey with a leash around its neck being happily lead tothe war room by Dick Cheney?

&lt;blockquote&gt;She has the taint of being part of the Bush years and backing the Iraq War (which I didnâ€™t support). I think the Dems would definitely hang that on her and it might very well stick.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Backing the Iraq War like the vast number of Democrats not beholden to far-left friend-terrorists like Bill Ayers, genocide maniacs like Raila Odinga and, of course, Uncle Wright.  I know which &quot;taint&quot; I&#039;d perfer in president.</description>

		<description>While, I don&#039;t think I would have put in &quot;Docs&quot; words, I tend to agree with his sentiment.  Obama doesn&#039;t have a whole lot of foriegn policy experience and yet people think he&#039;s a genius.  I think she could be a capable leader.  

That said, picking her would be a gamble.  She has the taint of being part of the Bush years and backing the Iraq War (which I didn&#039;t support).  I think the Dems would definitely hang that on her and it might very well stick.  

Just my two cents...</description>

		<description>This is humorous coming from people salivating over BHO. A man who&#039;s so-called &quot;judgement&quot; (regarding Iraq) was really a safe-bet with his far-left supporters at the time. A man that has shown 20 years of bad judgment through his association with a racist lunatic.  

You don&#039;t give her the respect of assuming that she agreed with Bush, but rather she was a docile little slave.  Your comments imply that she is a female Uncle Tom, but I guess that would fit any black person that ran on a Republican ticket.      

What a joke...</description>

		<description>And yet, the folks on the right think she&#039;s a great candidate and have been pushing it for months....some people just don&#039;t get it.

The real kicker is she&#039;s only interested because that rotten Roger Godell got her dream job.</description>

		<description>Just because Mr. Senor says she&#039;s campaining for it, doesn&#039;t make it so.  And he certainly provides no new evidence, but simply repeats the old &quot;evidence&quot; we had a couple weeks ago, that she participated in a &quot;ritual&quot; with Grover Norquist.</description>
