88. Same, the debates
I wouldn't call it huge disappointment. Over valued. That's the best I can do.

It started with the first debate, last April. I watched it while on vacation in Waikiki Beach, as an Edwards supporter. Within 10 minutes it was obvious Hillary was simply in a different league than the other top tier candidates, more specific and a natural debater. Obama said uhh a lot and was decidedly ordinary, exactly as you phrased it. Not much has changed.

Obama supporters remind me of the kids in school who waited until others had raised their hand. Then suddenly their hand was in the air also, even if they had no idea why, other than relieved conformity.
