Memo to Obama
"What do I know, but here's what I would do if I were you. I would call a press conference tomorrow to discuss the financial crisis. Do it in New York City. Even better, on Wall Street. Begin with a fifteen minute statement outlining why the crisis has occured and what, generally, the government should do about it. Contrast your approach sharply with that of McCain and the Republicans. Take questions for an hour from reporters. Finally, issue a challenge to McCain to debate the issue by week's end. And offer to allow McCain to bring Sarah Palin and Phil Gramm at his side if he needs them to advise him on the issues."

Wouldn't this be interesting?

Honestly, what the heck does NObama know about a financial crisis? For that matter, what does NObam know about anything? Does he have ANY leadership experience? NO Does he have any foreign policy experience? NO! Does he have any military experience? NO! Why on earth would anyone in their right mind think this man should be the leader of the free world??!

Yes, I love watching Obama attempt to put together a sentence over 4 words without stumbling when interviewed without a teleprompter. He's a fantastic speaker when he knows ahead of time what he's going to say.. much less so when questioned. I'm looking forward to the debates.

There's a reason Obama turned down McCain's town hall tour earlier this election - he knew it would make him look bad. Time available for cramming for the test is coming to an end..
