He's an astute polititian. Hillary may very well have been president if Obama had not separated from the pack.

Obama's opposition to the Iraq War was not nearly singular. Not even close.

Fifty-two Democrats voting against the resolution means a majority voted for it. I thought engineers were good with math. Do you know the meaning of "most?"

Admittedly, a lot of them did fall for Dubya's lies and patriotic bluster. Whudda thunk that an American president would lie us into a war?

The facts were there for all to see. Many Democrats wanted to get Saddam. DS/DS made him Amerca's bipartisan enemy.

This was out there for 'all to see,' in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, before the Iraq War. But the public was ready for a war, and didn't care a lot why or with who.
