The following snippet appears in the Trib this morning:
"When people talk about experience, what they really want to know is, 'Does he have good judgment?'" Obama said.
One hopes that more experience means better judgment, he said, but "everybody knows a lot of 50-, 60- and 70-year-olds that don't have good judgment, because they keep on making the same mistakes over and over again."
Obama didn't have to say the words "Hillary Clinton" for any reasonable viewer to think, "Hmmm, Hillary's in that age range now, isn't she?"
You know who else is in that age range? John Edwards, Joe Biden, Bill Richardson, Chris Dodd, Dennis Kucinich, Mike Gravel, Rudy Giuliani, Mitt Romney, John McCain, Fred Thompson, Ron Paul, Mike Huckabee, Sam Brownback, Tom Tancredo, and Duncan Hunter. It's obvious that even with all of those other candidates (and I do mean all*)who are between the ages of 50 and 79, Obama was REALLY talking about Hillary, and not at all trying to downplay common doubts expressed by the public about his own qualifications.
*Lyndon LaRouche is not in that age bracket, but he's not running this time, so he doesn't matter, and let's all do a little dance to celebrate that.***
Louisiana voters want to know who's wearing the diapers in this relationship: you, or the babies you kiss on your campaign for an almost effortless re-election to the U.S. Senate. But just remember: the citizens of Louisiana only like getting screwed by their government literally, not figuratively.

Next week, Kill Hannah is playing what used to be called the World, (later known as the Tweeter Center, currently known as the First Midwest Third Mutual Bank of LaSalle International Chase Amphitheater). They are playing with Velvet Revolver and Alice in Chains. Recently, Pearl Jam headlined Lollapalooza. The 90's have invaded, and I'm waiting to see who they get to replace Kurt Cobain when Nirvana announces their reunion tour.
