Schneider: Obama hits familiar chord on Iran
OXFORD, Mississippi (CNN) - Obama's answer on Iran was interesting and important...because he's talking about something that a lot of American's understand:
Our involvement in Iraq has strengthened Iran.
Watch: Obama says there needs to be 'tough diplomacy with Iran'

ACMEDINENENENJUD WILL KILL US AWL
I'd like to congratulate Obama on his rstraint for not blasting McCain for letting his VP candidate sit for a photo op yesterday with a man who he claims is our mortal enemy.
It's a "policy" Ryan because he opposes war and would use it only as a last result. Bush got us into this mess – and McCain voted for it!!
Senator Obama is dominating this debate! McCain won't look at him, refuses to admit where he is wrong and has no true response to Obama's arguments!
Diana I see your not a typical American, freedom comes at a cost and being from New Jersey who suffered the attacks of 9-11 you should know better!
God bless America and God Bless McCain for runing for President.
Neither McCain norBush understood the Shia-Sunni dynamic before we went into Iraq and McCain still doesn't. Of couse the war has helped Iran.
Obama Husain of course he will talk to Iran. McCain should open talks with Iran, but do we not remember 911. Husain in the white house?
It's not about who's to blame for the past, it's about the type of president we need when another Iraq has to be decided.
Obama is right on point on this one, he's not dwelling on the past, hes telling us how he will make military decisions in the future.
Barack Obama sounds pretty much the same....so too Mccain...
Its just same as their podium speeches...
Obama seems like he has memorized his answers and doesnt want to mention any other stuff....
Obama wants his children see the next century. McCain does not. That is the distinction.
i think schneider is not fair about some of the coment. take a look at new in the ticker... he is attacking Obama
our involvement in Iraq has strengthned Iran – YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING! If America did not stand up to freedom Iraq, Iran and Afganistan would have started WWW III
Great job, Obama. You have my vote.
where is McCain's flagpin – he is not patriotic(?)
Its not the past..because the next president will be walking on eggshells just to get us out of this mess. And Obama needs to mention that Iraq's new govt is friendly with Iran and will someday soon turn on us to be friendly with their neighbor.
I think McCain has felt the horrors of war. He does not want war, but if were in one he wants to win. He aslo understands we dont want a boat with a nuke in it pulling into Harbor in NY.
Yes, Senator Obama is correct on this one. Iran is laughing all the way home.
Why are they asking Obama to go first on all the questions?
Very good comment because it is a fact!
wow my msg is moderating?
Obama has a good plan to get us off of foreign oil. We greatly need this independent approach on energy. It's truly a big problem.
amen mccain needs help in public communication, he sucks at even getting dumb points across
senator McCain is full of crap. any one who is paying this crap whants to vote for another Bush.
pppp.... Gee, I wonder why Big Head won't look at Obama when he's talking. Now that's not very presidential. You LOOK at somebody when they're addressing you! He seems a bit initmidated and plum full of "ni-ev-a-tay."
Check out Obama!!!! He looks like he is nervous and stuuuuuudddering!!!
