Obama...grow a pair

This exactly why I didn't exactly like Obama. He's untested, he got basically a free ride into his Senate seat after his opponent imploded on himself, and Alan Keyes was forced to make a token run against Obama.

Moreover, he seemingly does not know how to fight.

Furthermore, and in my view, more damning, he REFUSES to fight. He refuses to fight?

This is a Presidential campaign Obama. Whether you beat the Big Hill or not, and you may not like her campaign's tactics, you will face a STARKLY more harsh campaign when you go up against the right-wing machine...as McCain through his surrogates will savage you.

There's a reason politics is called the ultimate Bloodsport, you MUST be willing to fight...you MUST be willing to fight dirty when asked to...you MUST be willing to be able to grab a "knife" and start stabbing.

Frankly, I don't think you have the cojones for it. And this is why the liberal wing of the Democratic party has continued to fail decade after decade. They refuse to fight nasty in what is in a nasty sport.

When one side uses a howitzer, and you come waiving a peace flag to a political battle...you will lose.
