If you look into some of his endorsements in Illinois state and Chicago/Cook local races, you'll see that there's a lot of apparent go along to get along in the man.

I'm curious why you are so negative about a dem who is openly negative about the lefty nuts in the party.

Got me thinking that the Emancipation Proclamation was one hell of a regulatory taking. Puts Kelo v. City of New London into a new light -- freeing the slaves was just a taking for private benefit, when it comes down to it. Vote Paul for market-based freedom!

I don't see Obama as a darling of the Lefty Dems, and his win was decisive. Maybe I'm being naive, but he seems to be a realist.
Obama worries the lefties, who think he's too interested in appealing to independents and Republicans.

when i look back on all the posts I regret from the past, I realize this was my nadir.

Two reasons.

First, Hank had never posted a "Byrd in the klan" pic; we all knew it was Penske, but Hank's persuasive arguing could only be dealt with by such cheap deflection techniques. We all lacked the intellectual firepower to deal with him straight up.

Second, clearly GGG was the one resorting to trollish behavior, yet I'm forced to read myself attacking Hank, that beloved poster that newbers started calling Papa about 2012. Why did my younger self lack the integrity to attack the one who deserved the attack?

Responding to this post would make me schizophrenic, wouldn't it?

none of my business really, but at some point the two psyches will mind meld, I mean if this is all true, and at that point the two of you should pretty much agree. i take it we're not there yet?

I'm pretty certain that I'll never hit 50, so this whole exercise presents interesting questions.

"Obama the Candidate" - is rather appealing, in a WJeffClinton-without-the-sleaze way.

The problem is that "Obama the Candidate" is currently nothing more than a projection; a possible myth; a PR dream.

"Obama the Senator" - the one with the actual voting record- the actual word and deed - is the guy that worries me.

The Left is worried he'll actually become Obama the Candidate. I'm pretty confident he'll remain Obama the Senator.

This is good stuff.

In all honesty, you should teach law school. Drive the fucking kids nutz with this stuff.

Maybe because the slave owners were all enemy combatants, they didn't have rights?
