Obama connects with people much better than Hilary. He converses, she lectures.

Hilary is a hard-working, driven, intelligent, articulate person - but she is just not a natural. And the harder she tries to deliver her lines, the more she grates on me.

On the issues, there is a lot of similarity, but as I investigate, I realize there are also some key differences. Take health care.

Hilary says you make health insurance affordable, and then compel adults to purchase health insurance.

Obama says you make health insurance affordable, and then leave it to adults to make their own decision to purchase it or not.

The second approach sits a lot better with me.

What about the "experience" attack that Hilary is using against Obama. Sorry, but she does not have "35 years" of experience that matters. And who says that long Washington experience is important or desirable in a President?

And she is the most polarizing figure in US politics after G W Bush. I think a Hilary Administration would be one long "Swift Boat" episode.
