Mrs. Clinton's experience vs. Mr. Obama's appeal to diversity

Hillary Clinton's experience
    First lady of Arkansas
    First lady of the United States
    Attorney who crafted the Whitewater deal
    Organized party faithful to take over U.S. health care in the 1990s
    Covered up her husband's assaults on women
    U.S. Senator (moved from Arkansas to NY to do this) who supported the war in Iraq
    Wears "Shoes and Socks," Hsu and Berger
    Oldest of the Democratic front runners
Mr. Obama's appeal for white, "color-blind" progressives
    White, Kansasan mother
    Raised by white grandparents in Hawaii
    Doesn't look or talk like Jesse and the guys
    Indonesian step-father
    No track record to be criticized on anything
    Attended Columbia and Harvard
    Member of United Church of Christ, main line liberal Protestant church
    Strong, family values to match the conservatives claim to this territory
    U.S. Senator from Illinois who wasn't in office for the 2003 Iraq vote, so he's clear to assume the finger pointing position
    Youngest of the Democratic front runners

What is the point of this post? Many bad and good things can be said about many good and bad people. As far as qualifications go, perhaps you should offer an unbiased set of must have credentials of all candidates from both parties. Hmmm, all believe in God,....check.

Since you claim to be an educated person, I must say, you are quite disappointing in your subjective slant and discourse. Your hatred is palpable. Very sad for someone who actually has the opportunity to make others read and think.

Gosh you're sensitive, subjective and biased. If I'm not shucking and jiving, kissing the feet of Democrats, I must be hating them? List the qualifications you think they have on your blog.
