Thing is, Obama has *no* idea of what he'll be facing if he gets elected. Hillary has a much clearer idea of what the score will be and what she'll have to do to get things done. The opposition will be overwhelming, but forewarned is forearmed. She'll at least have more of a chance. The conservatives will eat Obama and his warm fuzzies for breakfast; Hillary will give them enough indigestion to slow them down a bit.
