Obama's Got a Point

In his statement announcing his forming a presidential exploratory committee, Obama takes on the establishment:

Obama tried to turn his biggest weakness _ his lack of experience in national politics _ into an asset by criticizing the work of those who have been in power.

"The decisions that have been made in Washington these past six years, and the problems that have been ignored, have put our country in a precarious place," he said.

No kidding. If years of experience and seasoned political hands gets us Katrina and Iraq, who needs it?
