So much brouhaha was madeby liberals about the ad John McCain made comparing Obama's superstar status among his supporters to that of Paris Hilton and Brittney Spears. Who knew that in the 2000 DNC where Obama when invited to speak, he made thiscomment: "I am so overexposed, I make Paris Hilton look like a recluse," I think he is more overexposed now than ever. And still not ready to lead. What do you think?

I say that they should have put mirrored walls in Obama's pala- ah - mansion. He would never have left. He was bragging not complaining. You ever heard about the saying "thou dost protest too much?" This is what Obama is doing. He is reveling in his notoriety. And soon people will know what he really is like. Too bad, it will not be too late.

He was bragging when he made his statement about Paris. When John McCain compared him to Paris, Obama was all offended about it because the comparison no longer served his purposes and made him look sorta foolish.

I honestly just don't know if this is just a popularity contest for him, or if Obama really realizes the gravity of our nations situation. In some ways he is changing things in a food way - now hear me out... He is trying to truely make this administration transparent and keep the people informed. He has also given the voters a way to truely let their voices be heard. Now don't get me wrong, I don't believe for a minute that he actually reads the comments himself, but I do believe that his staff will keep him informed about what the voters are saying. That is a good thing. Ontheother hand, I have a really hardtimeunderstanding how this stimulus bill will actually benefit main street! I also am beginning to think that his choices for his cabinet tell us that he really was not prepared or ready to lead. Time will tell. I only hope that we are not worse off four years from now than we already are!
