Obama has more experience with machine politics than Hillary , Presidential Elections are not held in Washington (thank God).
You don't think the people of DC should be able to vote for a President? Why not?
Hillary started out in Illinois, in Chicago, just like Obama. She grew up there. She was a Goldwater Girl, by the way.
Then she lived in Arkansas for many years. They have politics there, too.
Now she represents the State of New York, both NYC and upstate. They have very serious politics there, I have heard.
Plus, Hillary has been around longer than Obama. So I don;t think your conclusion is actually true.
