Gandalf,
With the exception of the Senator label, I think you would be surprised who has what credentials on this board. Partypup comes to mind as someone who has outstanding credentials. Allan certainly has military experience and a wide range of historical perspective. There are probably many brilliant lurkers who do not post on the board, too. I am glad your candidate thrills you, but you still have to look at critical input when it comes to Obama, rather than your blind allegiance to him. Your devotion is just the flip side of the neocons you criticize. I personally am not thrilled with McCain either, so I am watching from the sidelines until I know more about both candidates and how much damage they will do to my family. One of the most important issues for me is who will be on the Supreme Court.
