Hillary has made tough decisions, brought people in NY together around matters of the economy and healthcare. She's mastered the system of politics perhaps more than Bill and has brought her enemies together, winning much respect in the senate. Obama is ESTABLISHMENT, having been up there in Illinois backing the dynasty of Richard Delay. Thus, Obama is better identified as part of the Daley machine. Even more unattractive is Obama's lack of experience; when push comes to shove we need a president who we can trust knows how to handle TOUGH matters.

Obama has a strong muslim background, and hides his muslim middle name; that's why the republicans will finish him if he faces them. No one who's black with a muslim background and middle name will stand against any republican. Hello! - These are conservative, white, older men; fierce defenders of the western world and America who have access to deep information, and have complete disdain for those who are different. But they won't play on those terms with Hillary, who has no such background and is very strong. That's why they and the very establishment media want republicans to face Obama, and not her.
