I don't get the hype.

The hype about Obama. Don't get it. I want a candidate who can talk about more than hope and change.
See this article, Obama: The Audacity Of Hype, for a good rundown of my feelings. Here is a sample:
"Obama's skywriting about there being neither Democratic nor Republican solutions -- just American solutions -- is a great way to say nothing. When he comes down to earth with an actual policy prescription, the product is less impressive."
I want substance. I want someone who will fight for Americans. I want John Edwards for President.
