Obama hasn't grown up yet. He's still a narcissistic adolescent.

As a Hawaiian, I’d like to know what makes you say that. First time in more than 20 years this state has sent someone other than a Rat to Congress and you have to throw the proverbial Baby Ruth bar in the punch bowl. Thanks a lot!

Wow! I wonder how the media will spin this. Makes me think the folks that elected a rat in PA-12 are really a bunch of fools.

It has been more than 20 years since Hawaii sent a non-Rat to Congress.
