#3 Oh, Jeez. If he were EVER a Muslim and he became US president who is also now a Christian, where would that land him, in terms of apostate bounty hunters? Mr. Obama, please be careful and stay safe. Think this run through fully and ask someone besides a Democrat on risks. In our times, there are Abdul Rahmans.

#4 Clintons get out long knives, go after opponents. In other news, dog bites man, sun rises in east, and Francisco Fanco is still dead.

Thing is, I wonder if all those Democrats who are (so the MSM tells us) so giddy with Obamamania! will take offense when their own party's power elite starts cheap-shotting the black guy.

(FWIW, IMNTBHO Obama's ancestry and whether or not he spent any time in a madrassa in Indoneisa is irrelevant to whether on not you should vote for him. I won't, but that's because he's pro-abort and anti-WOT. I do give him credit for being more of an adult than Kos or Hillary! or Reid or Kennedy.)

#5 This guy's all flash right now. Can't believe Hillary's jumping on him already. Could be an interesting lil' civil war within the Donk party we're watching unfold, although we all knew it would happen. There's no way he's nominated, even with the current hype if Hillary's still around in 2008!

#6 I don't care about his ancestry, either, Mike., but I do wonder whether that madrassah experience might lend a "they're only human" slant to his approach to the WoT. His being pro-choice/pro-abortion will only take conservative, pro-family votes away from him-votes he was not destined to have, anyway. Libertarians and middle of the roaders won't be turned away by his stance on abortion. This election will still depend on those folks.

#8 He's a socialist and a gun-grabber.

#9 We've watched him from up here in Wisconsin for a few years. He says a lot of "normal" stuff, but his actions put him only VERY slightly more moderate than our own Progressive/Socialist/Communist Senator "Rusty" Feingold (Yeah, call him Rusty. We used to do that in grade school just to make him mad. Appearance is everything to this type of person).
