If Obama Wins, Russia Will Be the First to Test Him
I’m just amazed by the dizzying news cycle of all these broadcast outlets during my brief visit to New York City this week. It’s actually quite hypnotic and surreal … I think that a few more days of this and I won’t even remember what was happening amongst the elections gossip of just yesterday. So a comment before I lose the shelf life on this one: I am completely blown away by the stupidity of something said by the Democratic vice president candidate Sen. Joe Biden about Sen. Barack Obama, that the prospective nominee would be “tested” by a variety of foreign leaders if elected. I think it was an incredibly stupid comment because it is almost unbearably true, and really provided the Republican ticket with something to talk about for three straight days … which has become tedious for everybody by this point. Granted they took it a bit out of context.
