Obama's refusal to answer tough questions from the media may be costing him brownie points with the editors of the nation's biggest newspapers. At a luncheon, McCain was given a standing ovation and a box of doughnuts. Obama....got insults including being called "Osama" by chair of the Associated Press.

The stress of dealing with the media and the long days of a campaign is nothing to the stress of the job. If Barry gets snippy with this, he doesn't have any business in the job.

wonder why it didnt hurt bush or kerry? They never did give us any details about skull and bones and it didnt seem to hurt them.

If he doesnt get in this time all he needs to do is run in a few years and he will get in later.

Well it would help if someone got the balls to ask..

However remember what happened to that kid in at the University of Florida that asked Kerry about Skull and Bones.... Campus Police took him down and tazed his ass. So that gives you an idea of what would happen if that question is asked.

You know, if you remember when the Clinton's were in the WH everyone in the country was making plenty of money!
I wouldn't mind seeing her get in.
I just want someone in there who's good for the country.
I don't see that with Obama or McCain.
Those two are too wrapped up in their own agendas to be willing to *listen* to The People.

The IT boom is what was driving the 1990s economy. That bubble burst in 1999 just like the housing bubble did in 2006. Now we are in a recession until the next bubble appears...

The problem with the US economy is that it has no true backbone to rely on.
