That works both ways. A. It tells me that John McCain may have done nothing about it, but is he even on those committees?
B. It also tells me that Obama doesn't have any experience in leadership in the Senate, let alone as president, since he hasn't been in DC long enough to do anything either.

The last line of yours is very telling, not of you, but general concensus, "long enough to do anything either" What does the general public believe he will do or can do? I do not understand this phenominon at all. I find it very odd.

That he will do something different than what is currently being done. I think that is what a lot of people want.

The problem here PD is the good ole boy network in Washington is alive and well. I do not believe Obama is part of that network. It will take 4 years to change that if it can be changed at all.

Couldn't have put it any better....I think it is going to get old pretty soon to the tactic of trying to lump McCain as some clone of Bush...I think this will backfire on him soon when they begin to debate.

Yes, the debates will determine if McCain is a Bush and old/delusional. Watch the elderly take offense to the old part and vote for McCain.

Like I said not many posts ago. He may not be able to get a damn thing done.

I recently heard it put like this in regards to Obama...

Voters'll probably go for the more qualified candidate who is also a bore. That worked great for Gore. And I hear conditions are ideal for a Republican candidate to win.

Like I said, uphill battle for Senator McCain.
