Just goes to show you
From the December 13, 2007 Democratic debate on Iowa Public TV
Moderator: Senator Obama, you have Bill Clinton's former National Security Advisor, State Department Policy Director, and Navy Secretary, among others, advising you. With relatively little foriegn policy experience of your own, how will you rely on so many Clinton advisors and still deliver the kind of break from the past that you're promising voters?
Obama: Well the uh.. You know I am...
Clinton (off camera): Cackle. I want to hear that. Cackle cackle.
Obama: Well Hillary, I'm looking forward to you advising me as well.
Moderator (off camera): Laugh.
Clinton (on camera): Silent and red faced.
If there is one thing in the whole campaign that has given me reservation about Senator Obama it is his apparent lack of spontaneity -- until today.
But further, this calls forth the question, Why aren't these people advising her?
Just goes to show you -- Newt's Mom was right.
