I received this article from a friend this morning and while reading it I couldn't help but laugh. It is ridiculous that anyone would take this seriously. Yes, it will probably negatively affect Obama's campaign. Yes, he might have been wise to leave this statement out of this speech. But it is also absurd to honestly believe that a presidential candidate would jeopardize his campaign with a statement such as this without stepping down directly after. As my roommate pointed out, "It's like Innes saying... 'This is what Plato is saying.. but hey, I'm a terrible teacher, I don't know how I got my degree.. hell, what am I talking about?' Sarcasm" Obama would be stupid to honestly say he would make a terrible president, 4 days before the election!! This is obviously sarcasm.
I do not consider myself exceptionally knowledgeable on the topics of political elections or campaigning strategies. This is simply a "naive" opinion. Make your own conclusion... you have 4 days.
