I like Barack Obama, but I don't think he is tough enough to take on the
Republican smear machine that will be out in full force and, in fact,
already is, based upon some dirty ads I've seen.

The Indiana primary is one I am going to watch closely.



The Clinton's can smear with the best of them my friend.

Including attacks on B. Obama.

Its the way things work around here.

Indeed. That's part of being "tough" in the current realpolitic...

I expect the Republicans to throw whatever they can, real or made-up,
against the Democratic nominee. In fact, they're already tossing crap
against Obama in North Carolina. Whoever the Democratic nominee is, he
or she damn well better be ready to throw it back and more.
