1. Tomorrow is Michelle-Gate. She was insufficiently proud of her country.

3. next week will be "OH SH!T!! He won Ohio AND Texas" week.
so I'm okay with this. Here's the way I look at it. If someone is motivated to vote in Wisconsin tomorrow and they were either for Obama or still up in the air and this late breaking story caused them to change their vote then I say....."Wow, some people are really stupid".

If that's the kind of people we're persuading...then YIKES!

4. Would you buy a used car from Obama?
Anyone who uses another person's creative, unique phrasing without crediting that person, is disingenuous.

That's the gravamen of plagiarism. It's anything but an insignificant matter about someone who's running for president.

It reflects negatively on his character, his trustworthiness, which, BTW,is McCain's strong suit.

So, I'm now getting bad vibes about this young man. I had been really impressed with him.
