6. Hasn't Obama got his "tough" creds in Afghanistan, Tunisia and Somalia?
You know, those wars he claims are "necessary"?

9. As commander in chief
Obama has shown himself to be a shrewd and lethal strategist ... this is not what I expected of him. I expected other things, but I applaud this. I am not a pacifist, and have no issue with his resolution of the OBL matter. Well done, I say ... and that took a LOT of nerve.

Now, if he would only display that kind of steel on behalf of Democratic values ...

Make no mistake. I will donate to his campaign. I will make phone calls. I will vote. But I do so from the perspective of someone who is deeply disappointed in the stands he has taken, and the stands he has declined. Still, he has shown himself to be a shrewd and lethal strategist ... he may be much more aligned with my values that I now recognize. In any event, on balance, I find I have to give him the benefit of the doubt ... I cannot name someone I would prefer in that most difficult office right now ...

15. That has to be one of your worst one liners yet.
biden, tough? he's the guy who rewrote the bankruptcy laws (which was totally unconstitutional) via his buddies in the credit card biz. Who, I might add, have all their offices in bidens old state of delaware.

biden, tough? hardly. He's just as big a corporate glad hander and obama. If not bigger.

equating biden as being tough is like saying a praying mantus would make a good watch dog.

18. ??
that equates zero to your headline.

you inferred that biden was the tougher of the two, that in no way means his mannerisms.

bottom line, biden is neither tough in his mannerisms or his demeanor. If anything biden is very good at putting his foot in his mouth.

Try again.
