The same day Hillary goes up with her red-phone ad, her campaign is asked on a conference call to give an example of when she was tested by a foreign policy crisis.
Silence ensues.
The "experience" card was always a tough one for Clinton, because, really, she has about the same amount of experience as Obama or Edwards. I think "fame and familiarity" are a much better way to encapsulate her actual advantage over them. It may explain why she tends to lose support as voters become more familiar with her rivals: if all she has to offer is being better known, that's a pretty easy advantage to lose.

You should not let your pro-Obama viewpoint obscure the very real point that while Hilary may not have the experience she says she has. Obama has virtually none and is vulnerable to a sustained attack during the general election. He better get a veteran foreign policy team behind him to parry the right wing attacks that could resonate with white male voters.
I don't know who this anonymous character is, but he/she is right on point. I suspect it is a 'she,' because women are smarter than men, just as Hillary is smarter than Obama. Now I've seen all your ill-informed, sychophantic posts about Obama, and all I can say is that you're probably just scared of black people...blackaphobia I believe it's termed. And I'm sure that you're not black, given your occasional college white-boy musical posts, which give away your race immediately. Anyway, why I say that you're probably scared of Obama is that you fear if you don't blindly support him, he will chase after you with a gun or something racist like that. So while you probably think you're being soooo liberal and edgy by posting these pointless remarks about Barack HUSSEIN Obama, you're just being the typical racist. If you still can't understand what I'm talking about, watch the Oscar-winning film "Crash." It's about people like you.
anonymous is in fact a male and an Obama supporter. The strident tone of the Hilary supporter, Hillrysuportchic2008, is what ultimately will lose the race if she is the nominee because that is how Hilary comes across albeit perhaps unfairly. She will need to get a good cross section of white males in the general election and I do not see her doing it against McCain. Obama is a risky candidate and a skillful general election campaign can probably take him apart, but he is the better choice since Hilary is almost certainly a loser.
