Clinton and Obama speeches today....

Interesting. Hillary was talking about making college available to all young people and Barack was talking about homeless veterans.

Wonder who brought those issues up first?

4. Because those issues were just unheard of before

Edwards started talking about them.

The fact that Obama sits on the Veterans Committee is irrelevant of course.

7. Obama has received high marks for his work on the Senate Veterans Affairs Committee

but homeless veterans meant nothing to him until JOHN EDWARDS started talking about them.

Another Edwards supporter with zero respect for anyone but John. It's getting old.

8. Obama on education; 1998

Free public college for any student with B-average
Principles that Obama supports on education funding:
Fund public school education in Illinois by increasing certain state taxes and decreasing local property taxes.
Provide state-funded tuition and fees to any Illinois student who attends a public college or university as long as they maintain a B average.
Source: 1998 IL State Legislative National Political Awareness Test Jul 2, 1998
