Obama = Clintonian On Driver's Licenses?

15 Nov 2007 08:29 pm

Wolfie asks about driver's licenses for illegal immigrants:

At first, Obama doesn't have a yes or no answer...: "I support the notion that we have to deal with public safety...and that driver's license at the state level can make that happen..."

Wolf: "This is the kind of a question that is sort of available for a yes or no answer...."

Edwards: "No...But.."

Dodd: "No..."

Obama: "Yes...But..."

Clinton: "No..."

Kucinich: "I take issue with your description of their being illegal immigrants..."

Richardson: "My answer is yes, and I did it..."

Biden: "No...."

Yay -- differences of opinion, and an exchange that Patti Solis Doyle could not have scripted better.

This was really pathetic from Obama. How could he pull this stuff after HRC's Philly stumble? Incredible.

Obama's answer was clear and simple: yes --- it's a public safety issue.
