Wait. Did he?

Its basically the same thing Hillary Clinton did.

But its okay for him to do it because hes not a Clinton.


Sigh. Hypocrites.

We're all Democrats. Even Hillary supporters like myself.

1. I'd say you have reading comprehension problems

But it's OK because it's rampant on this forum. The fact is that if we're going to vote on years of experience, McCain wins that over both of our candidates. Stating that is not an endorsement of McCain! What Clinton said is that she and McCain are qualified, but Obama is not. But Obama might be qualified for VP. But not until September. Maybe.

2. I've been saying that for months. And I think he has said it before
He's talking about framing the debate. He is right that if it's a battle of resumes McCain will win. That's not the same thing as "I'm qualified, McCain's qualified, and you'll have to ask Obama with respect to his candidacy" or "McCain and I have a lifetime of experience. All Obama has is a speech".

Hillary essentially said that Obama was not qualified to be POTUS, and her pollster said it directly. Obama has expressly stated that he believes Clinton is qualified to be president.

4. He said he "wins" on who has more time in Washington. That's NO "embrace".
