Obama closing in Clinton

Once again juste like previous states, polls are showing that Obama is getting closer to Hilary, what was supposed to be an easy win for her is being contested by Obama's campaign in Ohio and Texas where most of the ressources financial and human are being put in.Obama has TV ads after TV ads running like clockwork challenging Clinton on her agenda and also response to her latest attacks. Her last desperate move was to put some fear into the voters by starting an ad based on the "lil Betsy" ad where a young girl his counting the petals of a flower and then a nuclear type bomb explodes, Clinton ads claims Obama won't be ready to pick up the phone at 3 am whenever the country needs him. She claims because of her experience she'll be ready, if she was she wouldn't let the phone rings 5 times like it did in the ad, it shows hesitation to me, not readiness. However Obama had a nice comeback on this one, he said she already had a red phone moment when the Iraq vote was on the table and she failed to answer properly, so it's not about experience but about judgement, who is the best decision maker, who has better judgement?
Obama hands down.
