I like him and may even vote for him, but he can really drone on, can't he?

Yes! He sure does. I have been trying to be open minded but he just loves to talk and never says anything memorable.

Democratic candidates pretty much have their hands tied during the primaries. They dare not say anything that may upset their powerful Liberal base. The result is a lot of question dodging and platitudes. Ask any of them what they would have done differently after 9/11. All they will say is what they would not do. The reason is, they cannot say anything that might be seen as decisively pro-American. They cannot say anything about the use of force or military action. Not if they want the extremists in the base to nominate them.
Until after a candidate has been selected, for Democrat Candidates it is "platitudes are us".
Happy New Year!

That is one good reason not to vote for him. Considering his reaction and statements today made about Pakistan, God help us if he is our next President. He didn't act like he even knew what was going on........just a lot of hot air and smoke to make it appear he was well-versed. This is not the time for on-the-job training. Obama just can't hack it.

No I find him very interesting and intelligent. He takes the time to explain everything. That is one of the things I like about him. He also thinks before he talks.

Most presidential candidates do, but odd thing is this is someone I can listen to because he's one of the few that makes good points.

Yes.....I take a sleeping pill to avoid having to hear his latest rhetoric.----Maybe you are right though ?----If I try to listen to him .....will he put me to sleep quick than the 5 minutes it takes for the sleeping pill to work ?? ----I'm afraid that if I have to listen to what he is saying for too long...I might get nauseous too ?

No. But you are. Just joking, and he's the man for the job at the same time.
