Posted on: Incident at Paris Las Vegas (UPDATED)

Another example of the Clintons dirty tricks and attempts at clouding the issues. Nothing went on that was inappropriate as was finally borne out.

Experience in what? Obama if elected president would not be running the country by himself, but would surround himself with competent people and probably some a lot more so than Hillary.

In yesterday's debate, Hillary did try to appear presidential but she was just borrowing husband Bill's mantel and if hanging around the White House gives one the kind of experience that is needed in the White House, she has it in spades.

She did make mistakes though in her voting record as a senator that Obama avoided making and that was touched upon in the debate. It is also clear that Obama's stays above the fray of the dirty tricks, as opposed to the Clinton's. If dirty tricks and Washington grid-lock is the prerequisite, the Clintons win. If a fresh approach is the key, Obama does. Looking presidential is over-rated -- there's plenty of time for that later. Now is the time to assess the qualities of the candidates.

About the race card, I think Obama's campaign was soaring and to quell some of the crowd adulation he enjoyed, the Clintons had to create a diversion, so they started saying he was all talk, which as worthless and that Hillary was a doer.

At that point, Obama had to respond by saying words were important and to illustrate that, he mentioned J.F.K. and M.L.K. and their important speaches. The Clintons then spun this to mean that Obama was comparing himself with these men and it deteriorated from there and Bill Clinton, denied he meant anything much by his 'fairy tale' comment, but that didn't convince many. Neither did billionnaire Johnson's assertion that he didn't mean anything by his comment about Obama and the 'neighborhood'.

Why would Hillary be ready on 'Day One' and not Obama? This is something Obama should shoot down because I don't see what she has going for her that would qualify her better than Obama to take decisions on 'Day One', except Bill maybe but he's yesterday's news.
