Clinton shows off her note cards, not her personality

...In an endorsement interview via speakerphone with Plain Dealer editors and reporters last week, she emptied her brain, spewing information about her urban agenda as if she were reading a teleprompter on high speed...


She knew Northeast Ohio better than Democrat Barack Obama and Republican John McCain, who made separate calls to the paper...


Clinton is a fine candidate.


But she isn't paying attention to one of the messages voters sent Democrat John Kerry in 2004: Nobody likes a smarty-pants.

2. Does Obama have some people frothing at the mouth?
Because I would take his brain pan over Hillary's any day of the week and twice on Sunday. Yes, he is younger and has a different focus in his campaign that is not so "cram the data" centered, but he is categorically intelligent.

4. "Not so cram the data centered" as in empty and very hot air.
And if Hillary ever tried that she would be called an airhead, a person of fluff and no substance. It's okay for Obama but never for the woman.

7. This is a presidential campaign and she needs to connect to voters.
That's what Obama is spending his time doing. Hillary would NOT be called an airhead for doing that...

And regarding your insinuation that I am sexist, you can quite simply kiss my ass.

3. so we can say Obama's only asset is his black preacher style of speaking - wow - note cards are
now bad.

Being smart for the exam is now bad.

Better that effectiveness in getting real left type programs through is Obama's "compromise plan" for the GOP.

CAN'T WE ALL GET ALONG - may as well vote for McCain I guess (oh I'll vote for Obama - but without enthusiasm or any expectation and with a sadness for what might have been - but then women did not get the vote until 50+ years after the black man did - so maybe they should just stay in the kitchen for the next 3 generations).
