Washington Post, Edwards again gets good press, Edwards is a trial lawyer and a very good one. Edwards might cause more problems for Hillary Clinton in Iowa and N.H.

2nd Democratic Debate

The Second Democratic Debate showed how left the Democratic Party has gone, so much pandering to the left wing, it is more easy to move to the Centre from the Right than it is from the left. It has to be asked if the Democrats talk to themselves so much they cant see beyond their own opinions. It can be argued the weakness on National Security will cause more problerms for Hillary Clinton. To get elected a woman has to show that she is a Iron Lady, not some weak Liberal. I ask readers to think of themselves as the Republican Opposition, if Clinton is the Nominee, one could do political spots on TV that would make her look worse than John Kerry and John Kerry had a War Record a rather good War Record at that it must be stated. If you are a Republican and have served in combat aka John McCain you can use your War Record 24/7 and also show that Clinton is out of step with her own husband. Hillary Clinton is not Bill Clinton, if she makes a a major mistake there is no come back, Obama and Edwards are ready to take over. Edwards looked like an interesting candidate but the book by Bob Shrum should raise questions in the Democratic voters. Obama needs better script writers, he could be the Democratic Ronald Reagan, Reagan used humour to destroy his political opposition. In 1984 his famous remark that he would not use Walter Mondale youth and lack of experience against him won him the election. If you look at Reagan in that Debate and that remark you see in his eyes that he going to cut Mondale off at the knees, pure steel but done with a smile. Mondale Smiled and the PRESS smiled, it was all over well before the voters voted. Obama needs some good one liners, humour is a great way to make the people like you but also finish off the opposition.
