What's so superior about wanting to be a cowboy or superman when you are in Kindergarten? What's so wonderfully noble about being a trial lawyer who made millions of dollars in Medical Malpractice suits which have helped drive up ALL our Health Care costs? I smell a rat in this candy-coated character. What's wrong with wanting to be the President of the United States when you are in Kindergarten?

Media should put the 'attack' where attack is due: on Clinton. Why is it she comes out with her kindergarten kookoos and such about Obama and it's 'they're attacking one another'. Obama's trying to go about his business as Clinton keeps picking a fight with him, tugging at his shirt and stepping on his heels. And by the way I see Edwards has copied Obama again, this time with the word, 'silly'.

Obama still has a very childish approach to politics and reality. It was certainly a joke, but it just shows that Obama is not that honest he pretends to be.

It appears he is relishing in the campaigns of Clinton-Obama. But how sad it is that he is doing this now that he hopes he will have an advantage.

The real issue was Obama accusing Hillary of planning the presidency for two decades, when Obama himself had been planing the presidency since at least his time in the Illinois senate (and possibly sooner :)). Obama brought it up as a character flaw of Hillary's, which is absurd (as a character flaw). If these candidates have not been thinking of the presidency for a while, then they probably have no business running... Edwards, is such a panderer. He does not take Obama to task on much (if at all). What a candidate -- hoping only for second place...If he was really running for the presidency, he'd be pointing out "faults" in both Obama and Hillary -- and doing it in a respectful fashion (which is what Iowans and most people like to see).
