86. In other words, he said a big mouthful of nothing?
Y'know, I've promised myself that I'm not going to play the "this candidate vs. that candidate" game until I actually cast my vote in the primaries. That said, Obama is starting to annoy me. I like the guy and all, but the more I hear, the more he's starting to look like fluff. A lot of feel-good rhetoric with positions that are so scattered that you can't draw a straight line from one to another.

He wants Liberty in Cuba, and insists that maintaining the status quo is the way to do that? The embargo is what has kept Castro in power in the first place, it's kept Cuba politically and economically isolated, resulting in a practical mummification of the state. It's a good fifty years behind its contemporaries. When Castro finally kicks the bucket, what do the candidates think will happen in Cuba? What do they think our federally sponsored, Miami-based terror organizations are going to do during that?
