Obama is a follower not a Leader

In recent days Obama is sounding more and more like Edwards using Edwards populists message.

Obama's message has been guided by the prevailing winds of the moment, The only resonable conclusion is that Obama is willing to do anything to get votes, even if he has to compromise his own personal values. It was just a few weeks ago Obama was saying we need to sit down at the table and negotiate with lobbyist, and now he is sounding more and more like Edwards, using the same populist message of Senator Edwards and often using the exact same words of Senator Edwards. Edwards message has been the same from day one of his campaign. This is not the first time that Obama has followed the lead of Edwards. John was the first to go after Hillary in an aggressive manner. This aggressive nature of Edwards gave Obama the courage to to the same.

My question is, does Obama have any core values ? Is he willing to do anything and say anything to get elected ? It seems to me he is taking a page out of Hillary's play book, to get elected at all cost and willing to follow the prevailing winds of the moment and to do and say anything to achieve your goal.

We need a president that is sincere, passionate,trustworthy, smart, and a born leader like John Edwards. Certainly we do not need a follower like Obama.
