Baby Obama

The Obama campaign is really working on chipping away at Hillary Clinton's support among women.

Look at these photos:

Awww, he's adorable!

What's with this release of family photos of little Barack?

I bet this was Oprah's idea. Women love baby pictures.

Did this itty, bitty guy grow up to be the big boy Democrat nominee for president? Did he?

This one is a powerful image -- Baby Barack with his mom.

How will Hillary counter this? I wonder if her campaign will release some childhood photos of her.

A young Hillary playing with baby Chelsea would probably be better.

Childhood photos of Hillary would be a mistake. They would highlight her age. She wasn't a child in the 60s.

Hillary has to battle the image of Obama as a youthful, vibrant, JFK-esque candidate. That's his appeal.

OMW!!!! He's so cute!!!!!!!

Who ever guessed something that cute an innocent would grow up to be a politician! Sad, when you think about it.

Mama, don't let your babies grow up to be politicians.

Let them grow up to be cowboys instead.

Obama was a cute little kid.

You're right. There's nothing cute about his policy positions, especially his pro-abortion stance.

Thanks for the photos. Doesn't look like they helped him much, though.

To "anonymous," if babies are in their mother's stomachs they have been eaten! Obama advocates that? Wow! Thank you for spreading the truth before it's too late.

He is pro-abortion...he doesn't conduct the abortion hisself! I have a child but you know what, I love that I have a flippin choice! Imagine having no money to raise a child, being raped, and the some dutty politician telling you that you have to give birth to this child and take care of it? Grow up really cause if we take away women's choice, they'll just break out the wire hangers

I didn't vote for Obama, but I'm thankful that his mom didn't abort him.

She didn't feel that she was being "punished with a baby." She loved her baby boy and look what he grew up to do, run for president.

By the end of the day, he MAY be declared the winner of the election and the next president of the United States.

Think of how different the world might be if Obama's mom had made a different choice.
