Questions about Obama's stance on issues are welcome. Nobody complained when they asked about Obama's capital gains tax ideas. The complaints came when the questions weren't about issues, but about flag lapel pins, Reverend Wright, and what somebody Obama met had been doing when Obama was less than 10 years old. Almost nobody is judging the current President on his platform, but on his record in office. You can hint what his middle name is, but it isn't an issue, and not important to how the candidate would run the nation. It would only be used to build on prejudices. Why anyone would complain about being called out for using it is beyond me.
Pathetic. The closer McCain gets to the presidency, the more he becomes what he claims he's not, that's why he'd choke it away without regard to Obama.
Getting defeated in the ugliest way in 2000 while playing mostly fair will do that to anyone. It's very sad.... I'm wondering to what extent Obama will go when he shifts from left to center for the general election.
