Lets take a "wait and see" approach...Maybe YOU can cease your praise until he actually does something to deserve it...whadda you think?

I haven't praised him for anything- but you're writing him off as useless before he's even been put into the chair behind the desk. Seems a little short-sighted to me.

When have I ever said that I wrote him off? I simoly state that he has no experience, no track record and questionable associations...and why so many people want him "Sainted" before he has done anything..thats all

Nobody has said he is. So get over it. You can still talk about realities like the ones that bothered you.

Future realities are called SPECULATION, quit trying to pass them off as fact.

Default Question

Of could have said the same thing about George W. Bush but that's besides the point. I would argue that career politicians that have much more experience are, often times, ineffective.

The poster asked a question. Was not hysterical as you are.

Yes, we shall see what Obama brings. It would have been good if the MSM vetted him as they do others. Oh, well, they, as you have a crush.

A crush usually ends up poorly. You know that?

Well then my next door neighbor is fully qualified for office, but I sincerely doubt that she knows how to run a campaign to win against two established political machines, and I doubt that her ability to assemble a cabinet as well received as Obamas.

Further more, I doubt that her religious viewing of Oprah would have enabled her to not only withstand some 30 debates against the biggest heavy hitters in politics, but to convince 64 million voters that they possessed substantial knowledge of the issue confronting the nation.

And, I haven't even touched on legislative records and the fact that the man is a Constitutional scholar. So, please spare us the ad hominem arguments.
