If Obama gets the nomination ... |
|
will he campaign with the nicety, nicety we all have to get along, while they are beating the hell out of him and throwing everything at him but the kitchen sink? He seems to be trying to be so nice that I don't believe that he will bring it to the right.

4. Let's hope he employs a more proactive strategy than Kerry |
|
As much as I loved Kerry, that was the biggest flaw of his campaign.

7. If he wins the nomination... |
|
the hemming and hawing and pausing will not do. He will have to give them more than hope.

8. he's fought back very effectively against the Clinton machine |
|
and he's been quick and smart about it. He wouldn't have gotten this far if he hadn't.

10. You've noticed his speech pattern. |
|
He may do that because he's unsure of what he wants to say and how to say it. If he's reading a speech off a teleprompter he seems to have no trouble but speaking off the cuff and making things up as he goes along is difficult for him.

11. I think he speaks quite well off the cuff |
|
it is natural to have some speech delays. And he gives less prepared answers, than is typical for candidates. For other politicians they sound 100% like sound bites some of the time.

9. Even if he does, he has little chance to win in November. |
|
We need to see reality. Obama is as bad a nominee as Clinton is. He won't be able to win any states that Kerry didn't win. His white-hot star treatment, will burn up in the atmosphere before the general election.

I believe every pearl from your keyboard. Not. He can win every state Kerry won and VA, NM, possibly CO and OH. He's unlikely to burn up and he brings in new voters: African Americans and people under 30. At least I have some evidence for my opinion. You? Zip. Nothing.

13. as much as I admire Kerry- he didn't |
|
draw from the otherside of the isle the way Obama is able to.
I think he stands as good a chance and better of all the candidates.
peace~
