I watched Barack Obama's speech tonight after the HRC victory in New Hampshire, and have now seen a few of his campaign addresses. And while there's no denying his commanding presence and his wonderful voice, so far I have somehow avoided being blinded by the dazzling light of his very being. That said, I'm not about to go all Bill Clinton on him.
Especially off-putting to me tonight was this disingenuous promise: "We will end the war, and bring our troops home." Our next president may well be able to do one or the other of those two things, but he clearly will not be able to do both of them.
