Murtha is like Obama but a bit less polished, older and white.

I'd be a pretty happy camper if nothing else came of the 2008 elections but Murtha and Stevens out of congress... then if we could just do something about Byrd, Emperor of West Virginia...

Murtha is like Obama but VASTLY less polished, a LOT older, and white, a Marine, a Viet vet, more conservative, less intelligent, and with a completely different upbringing and early life and adult career path.
It's really, really hard for a guy like me to tell them apart even if they're standing side-by-side because of my overwhelming and unreasoning fear of Democrats. In third grade, a Democrat took my lunch money and I wet my pants. It wasn't the first or last time for either.

Murtha is a great asset to the Democratic party. In fact, he's like a lighting rod. Whenever he opens his mouth, the media is all over him. The Democratic party loves this as it takes the spotlight off of them and their shenanigans. Sure, he's not nearly as polished as Obama - then again, how do you consider one to be polished? A person can say the right things, but still go nowhere and provide no facts as to where they'll lead our country.
Finally, Obama can be distinguished from any of the other candidates - whether Democrat or Republican. After all, he's now into infomercials. "Quick ... if you place your order in the next 10 minutes ... we'll double your order. $19.95 + shipping and handling."
