The really amazing thing about this whole election process (amazing to us European observers at least) is the fact that there hasn't been a single LEGITIMATE criticism of Barack Obama...
It must be a testament to the quality of his character that FOX NEWS can't even fabricate a decent lie about this guy (a decent lie being one based on a kernel of truth):
-some guy he met once used to be a radical revolutionary in the early 60s
-his sometime pastor made some comments which, taken out of context, could possibly be misconstrued as anti-American
-he might secretly be a Muslim
-he's too liberal because he wants to help the middle class, not give the ultra-rich more tax breaks
-he wants to "talk" with Iran, instead of selling them weapons
-his name sounds a little like "Osama"
-he's too black
-he's not black enough
-intelligent people (by inference: Jews, gays and communists) are supporting him
...add to this the fact that he hasn't once used any tactics from the Carl Rove playbook (Hilary's using all of them): no negative campaigning... no smears... and a refusal to deal with FOX NEWS... and he's got my vote.
