Great article on the front page of the New York Times.  Click here to read:

Poking fun at himself he may be, I love this quote b/c it shows that even the idol himself knows exactly what he has accomplished:

“I’ve been very blessed,” Mr. Obama told the crowd assembled in March 2006. “Keynote speaker at the Democratic convention. The cover of Newsweek. My book made the best-seller list. I just won a Grammy for reading it on tape.

“Really, what else is there to do?” he said, his smile now broad. “Well, I guess I could pass a law or something.”

    certainly fair points, noone disputes that Obama hasn’t been in the Senate that long… but i do think there are some counterarguments in the NY times piece that you didn’t mention.

    Catherine – As a Hillary supporter, I’d be interested in getting your thoughts on some of the questions I posed on the new post?
