That's one of the reasons I really like Obama.
He goes to Detroit and gives a speech about how we need tougher fuel efficiency standards.
He goes to churches and tells them not to pander to homophobes.
Hillary tells everyone what she thinks they want to hear.
First she's about experience and not about change.
Then when she finds out the voters want change, she says "oh well I want change too and I have the experience to bring about change"
She was for the Iraq war when 7 in 10 Americans were for it, now that 7 in 10 Americans are against it, she's against it too.
Obama says the same thing everywhere he goes, even when it's not popular.
Hillary will never say anything unpopular because she won't speak without running it by a focus group first.
And to have an ex-president out on the campaign trail smearing another candidate by saying things that are patently false....it's demeaning to the presidency.
I'm sick of the Clintons, and I sure do hope the people who live in super tuesday states are sick of it too.
