OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT?

This could change the political landscape, and I am sure Hillary is not pleased. A major problem for the democrats has been a lack of fresh blood and new ideas. Most of the candidates who have expressed interest are beyond their sell by date: Kerry, Edwards, Gore, Clinton, everyone knows what they stand for (or don’t stand for). Obama brings in fresh ideas and excitement. His main problem is lack of experience. This is getting interesting:

Sen. Barack Obama acknowledged Sunday he was considering a run for president in 2008, backing off previous statements that he would not do so.

The Illinois Democrat said he could no longer stand by the statements he made after his 2004 election and earlier this year that he would serve a full six-year term in Congress. He said he would not make a decision until after the Nov. 7 elections. Read More.
