Media's different set of rules for Obama
What will the news media and the voters do about these Democratic nominees?
I'll give you an idea from a voter who has voted both Democratic and Republican.
How did the news media place the country into such a predicament? Let's face it; the news media didn't play by the same rules while reporting on Clinton and Obama.
Remember Clinton asking Obama if he wanted a pillow before one of the debates? I laughed because it was true.
Only recently the public have started to get to know Obama, and some of it is concerning. Let's face it; character has a lot to do with who we elect as a president.
One example was when Obama reported that he wasn't aware of Rev. Wright's racist and hateful comments. Obama was a parishioner for 20 years under Wright. Does he actually think that the public is that naïve? If Clinton went to a church that spewed hatred and racism her candidacy would have been over a long time ago.
When Obama and his followers are asked what he's done as a senator, nothing of substance is given, only rhetoric.
Here's how I see it in the general election. Because of Obama's character flaws and lack of experience, the Republicans will win the White House.
Clinton will work very hard for Obama to win the presidency. She cares too deeply for the Democratic Party and all of the citizens she has fought for the last 30 years to do anything else.
Obama just doesn't have the experience or the character to be our next president. Clinton knows this and that's why she's still fighting. Unfortunately, the super-delegates would rather do the easy thing and wait four more years.
What a shame!
