    [quote]Damned if he does, damned if he doesn't, because if he does debate Hillary, he is also running the risk of proving again that his only real skill is reading prepared text from a teleprompter. [/quote]

    Up to this point the media has been in the tank for the Big O. But in the last debate he got a taste of what real candidates get treated like. He didn't like it. So he's going back to his canned speach in front of adoring minions.

    Of all the presidential candidates, which one would you say is the best speaker?

    This idea that Obama is not a good speaker, is a bit kooky.

    Is it possible that North Carolin is one of those states where a substantial portion of the population is embittered by their economic circumstances and "clinging" to guns and God out of resentment against leftwing elitists?

    Or may they's jist not allowin' no teleprompters in North Carolina.

    *written in the style of Obama's speech when he is not in front of a teleprompter.

    Hillary is best when talking about policy.

    McCain is best when answering the questions from the media.

    Obama is best when giving a canned speach in front of people who think he's the second comming.

    We are asked to simultaneously believe that Obama is smart enough and perceptive enough to be president on the one hand, and on the other that Obama was completely ignorant of the political and social views of people he worked with and went to church with for years. Both these things cannot be true.

    Obama should debate. He only debated Hillary 1 on 1 four times. In not doing so he looks weak and cowardly. I voted for Obama back in February when I thought he was offering a new kind of politics. Over the last two months I have seen him engage in the same dirty tactics he once condemned. I am disappointed in Obama because I thought he was about fighting the political machine, not running away from it.

    The guy is a Marxist which means that he is the political machine.

    likwid: Great point; to be more precise, he is a member of a political machine in the tradition of Saul Alinsky, a well-known Marxist organizer.
