29. This article is a backhanded way of injecting race into the campaign again
Froma Harrop appears not to be a fan of Obama. Her article trys to continue the race baiting issue

It really comes down to this:

1. The Iraq war
2. Healthcare
3. jobs
4. The Supreme Court
5. Social Security
6. Medicare
7. The Environment
8. The high price of food and energy
9. Education

If people believe that they are better of than they were 8 years ago, then they should vote for mccain, because there is no doubt that he will continue MOST of the bush policies of the last 8 years

However, if people have another view then they should vote Democratic

and most likely that Democratic nominee WILL BE OBAMA

Googling the author of the article, Froma Harrop, appears that she has a bias against Obama, and a preference for Hillary

She obviously doesn't like the results of the PRIMARY.

The author conviently forgets that it was the ACTUAL Clinton campaign that introduced these "side" distractions, including elevating mccain over Obama

The truth is that it was Clinton who was the presumptive Democratic nominee a year ago. It also was mccain who was suppossed to be the republican nominee

I suggest that these opinion writers and so called journalists are more uninformed than they care to admit

Where were their voices when they were beating the war drums for us to attack Iraq based on LIES?
