At lease Obama wont need a side kick to explain what he says or correct his mistakes like Grandpa McCain does. I hope Obama takes time to meet the Democratic Leader of Palestine the Hamas Leader. Look it's time for people to face the fact that Hamas won the election and that wont change. Lieberman is now seen for the corrupt official he is and let's hope Israel turns their back on him quick.
