Fantastic article. Obama is indeed all talk and no action. But the US elected JFK on the same basis and he was probably younger than Obama is today. Americans feel the need for a drastic change and what is more drastic than a young, inexperienced, African American president? Its almost as if people want the opposite of what they currently have.
If Obama wins the Democratic ticket(I think the writer is wrong about Gore stepping in), he and McCain have a good fight ahead. McCain's age is big factor but he is very sensible and mature.
