24. I'm a big Obama supporter...
...and I have to agree with you.

We've just had our little "truce" declared, which is good.
Obama definitely handled that with grace and he did the right thing.

However, if he goes into that debate, erroneously believing that
this is going to be a civil situation, he's in for a rude awakening.

He has to be prepared for her to attack. If he isn't prepared for that,
then he'll get his ass handed to him.

The attacks will begin again tomorrow. I think he needs to go in,
prepared to take her on. You don't have to do it in a vicious way.

He needs to start answering some of her main assertions---that he has
no experience and that he hasn't been anti-war all along. If he
allows the Clintons to define him, then he looks weak.

We all saw what they did to Kerry. He's got to get out in front of this
stuff--and if you do it in a diplomatic, strong way--you can make her
look like the weak one.

Barack Obama and his people are a lot smarter than I am. What do I know?
I just worry about some of our Dems sometimes. They lie down and take it
when they should be going to the mattresses.
