There isn't a day that goes by when we don't hear a lie about Obama or some word to discredit his patriotism from the mouth of some Repubican. Where are all the heavy hitters from the Democratic Party? Obama cannot do it alone. Biden is out there, but I haven't seen anyone but John Kerry defending him on the grassroot level. Where are the Clintons, the Dodds, all those former candidates. It has got to be a group effort for all the reasons you talked about earlier. I'm an African-American and I know why Obama is constrained - and I love him because he has conducted himself with such class. That's why the most powerful and articulate Dems from the House and Senate have got to speak up and I don't see it. They have got to hold McCain's @$$ to the fire and really raise doubts about his judgement. They have got to paint the picture of what America will be like if he gets into that White House. They've got to insist that Palin come out of hiding and meet the press.
