3. Obama isn't divisive like Hillary is.
So if it's just a matter of those two, it's Obama in a walk.

2. You're absolutely right....
Very calm, articulate, and most of all logical. She tried twice to bring up the fact that the American people weren't shown what our courageous leader did on 9/11, but the rest of the panel never picked up on it. She was trying to show us, like Mike Moore did, that the American press is in the hands of this administration and will show us what they are told to show and nothing more. I was impressed by Ms. Campbell.

4. Just for the record, Kim Campbell was never elected
Mulroney bailed, and handed off the sinking ship to her. She lost the next election - was trounced actually. The conservative propaganda machine tried to pin it on her, but the truth is Canadians had come to despise Mulroney.
