OK, I've had it ...

I keep trying to give Obama the benefit of the doubt. But comparing President Clinton to President Reagan making it 'sound' like Reagan was the more impressive of the two is cowardly, manipulative or insane. And I don't think Obama is insane.

Here are the excuses for Obama's perverse behavior:

President Clinton was a competent President. Reagan was a disaster. We have to break this mold that suggests that in order to be elected Democrats must to sound like Republicans. President Clinton went to close to that divide and Obama is carrying it even further.

This is NOT what the Democratic Party needs. Edwards and Hillary have demonstrated that they are not cowards in this regard. But Obama is cowardly (or by conviction) heading into the Republican camp. Really, a Lieberman with a personality can do even more damage to Democrats. This is not what we need.
