Rove goes after Obama and almost sticks up for Hillary

This has to be the first time I have quoted anything Rove has done in a positive light. But the man has a valid point on Obama's lack of experience and how Hillary should hammer him on this point.

Obama is all words and when Rove and the Republican media machine get a hold of his words and twist them he will have nothing left to rely on, except his actual legislation and policy. Unfortunately, Obama has neither. Rove's assault on Obama demonstrates exactly why Hillary must be the candidate if the Democrats are going to take back the White House. All of Hillary's "problems" and every step she has taken for the last 16 years has been under a microscope. There will be no surprises and she has dealt with the pressure from Republicans. She has proven herself against their slander, but Obama has not and I would bet good money that if Obama wins the nomination the Republicans will destroy him in the media and make him look naive and inexperienced. Many of the right leaning pundits are already taking aim at him.

Some of these arguments are going to stick and if Obama looks like a hypocrite it will be difficult, if not impossible, for him to dig out of the hole. When Hillary is questioned she can point to her career and voting record. Obama has not had a national career and as mentioned in prior blog posts here, he has failed to vote often, especially on hard issues.
