This response comes late, but I digress. Obama picks up two more victories to bring his current “winning steak” to ten (this is beginning to sound like a sport) since Super Tuesday. This was to be expected as Hillary Clinton is putting most of her focus on the Texas and Ohio Primaries on March 4th (Vermont and Rhode Island have their primaries this day as well). McCain picked victories as well and is ever closer to officially earning the Republican nomination and I do not believe the New York Times report on a potential affair will have any effect on that.
Here’s an interesting article from CNN on Obama and his amount of patriotism. A reporter criticized the Ohio senator for not being patriotic enough
The reporter cited the fact that Obama once failed to put his hand over his heart while singing the national anthem…
The reporter also noted that the Illinois senator does not wear an American flag lapel pin, has met with former members of the radical anti-Vietnam War group, Weather Underground, and his wife was quoted recently as saying she never felt really proud of the United States until recently
I’ve always found it interesting in a post-September 11th America the amount of patriotism one has can be questioned and attacked. Does wearing a small pin really make you more an American than someone who doesn’t?
