Edwards: Is Obama a "featherweight?"

Hairspray John Edwards is partially correct. St. Barack Obama is a featherweight, trying to box above his weight. But so is Edwards.

Weighing in above is Bantamweight Bruce. His punch can't break glass. Or his own wind.

Whatever.

Obama is the most honest and sincere, has integrity, was willing to stand up against the Iraq war back when most regular americans supported it, he has spear headed unpolpular (in the senate) ethics bill, and isn't afraid to negotiate.

WE DON'T NEED ANOTHER ANGRY MONKEY IN THE WHITEHOUSE.

You should say Angry White Monkey - because all of these types of comments are aimed at the fear of white America. It's seems like its only been 15 years since blacks were allowed to live next to whites - Maybe that is just because I live in Chicago - there is enough fear to switch whites from looking at the truth to looking at their fear. That fear also involves that blacks might get better treatment and power.
I believe they would rather nuke America than let a black man be president. Obama might be able to turn the anti-american attitudes around.
He does have the humility to deal with others - and other leaders around the world will see that and lessen their tone and talk.
Is that so hard to see??

Eswards is a moral featherweight, a genuinely tasteless politician, a populist phony who insists on $400 haircuts, an ambulance chasing millionaire falsely claiming a voice for the poor and unfortunate.

Edwards' has never been a voice against war. His has always been a voice for over-the-top, religious patriotism, the very poisonous stuff responsible for so many of America's problems and excesses.

It doesn't mean you're a 'heavyweight' just because you scream, stomp and shout the loudest. So Edwards in his sequel to the white house showed his desperation and anger again, and Obama came out the winner, as the debate voting showed. It was Edwards afterall who followed Obama's lead on a couple of issues against Clinton at the debate, and it is Edwards who has been following Obama's lead on many things throughout this campaign. So don't get carried away Edwards because you are shorter than Obama and therefore closer to the microphone!

Edwards seems like a bratty boy compared to Obama. This featherweight comment proves it. Obama appears rather substantial, in his moral clarity and spirit, his thoughtfulness and his energy for overcoming obstacles to solve problems. A featherweight would be someone who didn't have the insight, foresight or strength of conviction to vote against the disastrous Iraq invasion. ie: Edwards.

Still, any of them would be better than the scary rack of Republicans we see before us.

I totally agree. That's what I got from the debate. With all the hype, with all the telegraphing, Obama simply cannot deliver. He only had one job, a simple job at that, and that was to differentiate himself strongly from the clear frontrunner. And he ended up sounding weak and professorial.

He will be the worst person to run against the Republicans. Republicans know how to handle wimps and more and more, Obama is showing us that he is a wimp through and through.

Not that Edwards fares any better. He whines too much.
