Do you/we really even know who he is? This "enlightening" piece from Obama supporter Camille Paglia paints an ignorant picture of politics.

"Yes, it's true we know relatively little about Barack Obama, and his triumph is a roll of the dice. But John McCain (like Bob Dole) was a major Republican misfire -- a candidate of personal honor and heroic sacrifice who was woefully inadequate for the times. McCain's lurching grandstanding during the Wall Street crisis made him look like a ham actor on a bender. In debate, McCain was always pugnacious but too often bland or rambling, and he often missed glaring opportunities to score off Obama's vagueness or contradictions."
For someone who campaigned on "change" (which I now believe he stole from Arnold) he hasn't been about change at all. Gore? oh come on.
