Toughness is necessary. Republicans can invoke lie after lie and then through a creative process of repeating the same lie,(abeted by the fox propaganda network) we have what amounts to evangelical truth. If Obama is going to win he must demonstrate how tough he can be. It may me the single most important characteristic a President can have in his arsenal. The American people don't want another republican but they will not accept someone who leaves doubt to their ability to defend the country, the citizens and their families. NO Toughness, no dem as prez. Its that simple. Obama knows this. He has 53 days to convince America he will protect our wives, husbands and children. It is not just a security issue. It is economic, it is issue oriented, but it is much more visceral than intellectual. I know Sen. Obama can do it, but he must begin now. PS. he cannot get his ass kicked by a vp candidate from alaska on the toughness question. The kid gloves must come off. The better candidate is Obama, I think a decent majority knows this but a lesser candidate who doesn't take any bullspit will always be percieved as a stronger and more capable candidate. What good is having knowledge without the power to implement change.
I believe we all need to get tougher when dealing with hate mongers and bigots. I know I will.
