I have to agree. This is a real blow to Obama's integrity.

He's been exposed as a panderer, who says things he doesn't mean, just to get elected.

If Hillary can pull off primary wins in Texas and Ohio, I think the tide will turn, and the media as well will give Obama more scrutiny from this point forward.

Hillary is promoting herself as tougher than Obama. But the core of her argument is her superior experience, and tenacity to fight and win the really hard battles. I don't see her message so much being that she's a typical politician, as that she's a tough-as-shit SOB (or female equivalent) that nobody wants to mess with.
