The big mo'

Indeed, another good night for Barack Obama and encouraging news from NBC, which projects that Hillary Clinton must get 63 percent of the vote in Texas, Ohio and Pennsylvania in order to reclaim the pledged delegates. This, of course, is based on the assumption that Obama wins Wisconsin and Hawaii. I think he will the latter and, after seeing some recent numbers, I'm more optimistic about the former (plus Clinton appears to have conceded the state and set up camp in Texas).

What I am a bit irritated about (and a bit confused, as well) is the Clinton attacks that assert Obama is all talk and not capable of being President. Clinton does not have that many more years of senate experience than Obama. While she’s jumped in front of a few parades, I don’t recall any landmark progress she has led while in office. And this notion that she has the relationships and know-how to get things done in Washington is kinda bullshit. Obama is far more popular with Republican voters than Clinton and Republican reps would be unwise to block some of Obama’s popular suggestions. Conversely, any slowing or frustrating Clinton’s initiatives would be cheered by the GOP faithful.

This is all my opinion, of course. I feel the argument that she can somehow get more done and is simply better qualified for the job of what we need from the President right now is patently false.
