beat Hillary?


I don't like her policies either but how did he come out of nowhere and beat her? And do people really faint when he speaks? That is just weird!

A lot of it had to do with the mis-management of the primaries by the DNC.

My friends who support Hillary say that she actually got more votes.

I can understand how tiring it must be for you since you keep saying the same silly things and don't contribute any facts to a conversation.

Sorry, I do not think it is silly to reiterate the fact that Obama hardly has experience and had Reverend Wright as a mentor for a very long time.


I think

In 2004, after Bush was re-elected, I knew EXACTLY who the Democratic nominee would be. And I was right. The buzz around the young politician from Illinois sounded so much like the buzz around Bill Clinton after the 1988 Democratic convention that I knew Hillary wasn't going to win.


Seriously, it's not all about experience. If we talk only about experience then indeed, McCain IS the most experienced candidate running. But it's not just about experience, for if it were Al Gore would have beaten George W. Bush in 2000, Carter would have beaten Reagan in 1980, and Nixon would have beaten Kennedy in 1960. A lot of it is about how excited the public gets about the candidate's message. Obama's message excited more people than Clinton's did. It really is that simple.
