Eloquence is not a substitute for a record and actual experience.

If one expresses a thought eloquently, doesn't that indicate a sound grasp of the idea itself?  I mean, before you can run you'd have to walk.  Clearly Obama is running with his ideas.
What if the 'record and actual experience' you speak of is horrible?
Big Mac's a former POW, a role player in the keating 5, an enabler of mass murderer GW Bush and within years of the average mortality ceiling for men.
I know I don't vote for unrepentent enablers of mass destruction and murder.  That's why Big Mac gets a solid 'negatory' from yours truly.
