Obama = Clinton II

People wondered if Hillary would be Clinton Presidency II: The Sequel, but little did they realize that Obama's just as good a candidate. From MoDo:

If Bill Clinton weren't still sulking, he would appreciate Obama's emulation of his style in '92, taking a bit from the left and a bit from the right.
She did miss Obama's ridiculous quasi-Sister Souljah moment, where he takes issue with Bernie Mac. The press spun it as a repudiation, but looking at his remarks, he actually seems like he's being chummy with Mac when it suits him (in front of a black audience), but then repudiates him harshly later through a campaign spokesman. This is an even more ridiculous flip-fop -- having Bernie Mac speak for you isn't like inviting LeVar Burton from Reading Rainbow.
