Re: Barack Obama and '08 Presidential Elections.
Ironically, the longer he stays in the Senate, the less electable as President he becomes. Just ask Gore, Kerry and Dole. The more of a voting record you generate, the more your opponent can find things to pin against you.
I hope he runs. It’s not like he’ll have much less experience in government than when Dubya started, and you never know when your last chance is going to come.
I bet if Colin Powell had to do it all over again he’d have ran for President in 2000.
