End of the Clinton era, back to the Kennedys?!

Obama's landslide victory in South Carolina where he scored (55%) twice as much as Clinton (27%), and the rally of a few figures of the Kennedy family to his candidacy let think that, despite all Hilary's efforts, she may lose the Democratic nomination indeed.

If Obama won, I would support him, but without conviction. He's got no experience, we don't really know what he stands for and all he seems to be able to do is good speeches. By the way, this is the rather surprising reason why Senator Kennedy decided to endorse him: "I was looking for a candidate that inspires me".

If Obama is interesting, he gave me cold feet when he talked about launching american troops in Pakistan to bring Al-Qaida down even if the head of state disagrees. Hillary had shut him up by reminding him that we should pay more attention to hypothetical claimings about an unstable country that owns nuclear weapons. He built his campaign on his opposition to the war on Iraq, but he wants to cause new conflicts?!

Furthermore, it's not sure that he could beat the republican candidate in November.
