About Time... A TOUGH Democrat

I just love this Obama quote from the Wall Street Journal:

‘If They Bring a Knife to the Fight, We Bring a Gun’


As much as I admire that fact that Obama is by far the smartest candidate we have seen in awhile I like it more that he is not afraid to pick on or take on the opposition.

This was true during the Democratic nomination process (although there were lines he would not cross against a fellow Democrat). He has no such restriction against the Republicans or John McCain.

People forget that he is from Chicago and that is one tough market to play politics in.

Only New York is tougher.

From the statement above to telling the GOP to back off attacking his wife. Obama is a scrapper and that is a GOOD thing!
