Golden Opportunity

Community organizer Barack Obama, who has conceded he lacks the experience to be president (by saying the key issue is judgment and by selecting the aging Joe Biden as his running mate), has a golden opportunity to demonstrate his mettle by organizing volunteers as he has promised to help in the wake of Hurricane Gustav. In fact, American eyes will be watching both him and John McCain this week to see how they respond to a national crisis. In fact, my guess is that President Bush will get a pass, no matter what he does three years after Katrina.
