Play from 0:00[0:00]" He's got a difficult problem in two ways the first is. That that what he's experiencing is what happens to every single presidential candidate this -- have in the John Kerry four years ago. When you go from candidate in the primaries to potential president every single word you say every syllable every word is. Scrutinized so intensively and think he might have said six months before that went unnoticed suddenly become a big deal second problem. He's gotten a real dilemma on the Iraq War to win the nomination he ran to the left of Hillary Clinton. Remember that he was going and kept saying I was against the war before she was I was the consistent -- she voted fort. It gave him in a gimmick in a primary campaign where they were not a lot of differences between the candidates it gave him an opening to attack -- from the -- now. Of course he have to move to the senator and here's the deal with equipment changing reality on the ground."

Play from 0:58[0:58]" Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton have some fundraisers planned this week. On Friday CNN had a poll out that suggested that there are still Clinton supporters -- if not going going to vote for McCain they will stay home do you think that's still a problem for Obama store yes."

Play from 1:15[1:15]" But I think he will overcome and I think it -- we've been talking about the war. If you care about the war the difference between Barack Obama even one who was somewhat more measured and cautious than -- the candidate in the primaries. The difference you know bomb on the war in McCain on the -- night and day Democrats in the -- that but the two words that really going to make a difference. To most Democrats and I think we'll unify the party are judges and vetoes most news. Politically savvy Democrats will look at that the court make up and -- My goodness the the choice as the next president will probably be the single most important decisions next president makes who's going to be the next Supreme Court justice and they'll be huge difference in the other factor is -- The effective period Democrats have made no progress at all. In limiting or restricting George Bush's hand on the war they've made no progress on issues like stem cell research for the country's behind them why because he has the veto. So Rick if those Reid -- reluctant to recalcitrant Democrats focus on those two words judges and vetoes. Most of them going to be from Barack Obama "
