Sen. Obama is charismatic, there is no question. But where's the substance? Speeches won't get my diabetic brother health insurance or help get my mother - who lives on Social Security - the medication she needs. My sister is a doctor and SHE doesn't have health insurance for her family. It's too expensive. She had to choose: college for her three teenagers or health insurance. She couldn't afford both because she is the sole support of the family...her husband was in the real estate business but he lost his job.

Sen. Clinton is right: LET'S GET REAL! We need solutions, not speeches. The economy is getting worse by the day.

Do yourself a favor and look at the candidates' records. You can't be an agent for change when you vote "PRESENT" like Sen. Obama seems to do more times than not. In two years, he has either not voted or voted "PRESENT" more times than Sen. Clinton and Sen. McCain.

Check out the 513 legislative acts that Hillary Clinton has sponsored or co-sponsored. Things like:
79 . Procedural Fairness for September 11 Victims Act of 2007 (Introduced in Senate)[S.2106.IS]
