Title: Can we Ask? - Rnc asks questions of Obama

Anonymous) Senator Obama: your health plan will hurt mothers more than fathers. Do you care less about mothers? You make the parent buy the insurance for the kid - the parent is more often a woman. Will you give women some extra money to pay? Why don't you just cover everyone like Senator Clinton? 
(Anonymous) Why do you think an Independent voter should choose you over John McCain? 
(Anonymous) If leaving Iraq will mean civil war and $8 per gallon gasoline - will you still leave as you have promised? 
(Anonymous) Senator Obama, I was a Hillary Clinton supporter coming in to the primary season and have been a democrat for the last 8 years, after switching from the Reform Party, which I have since went back to. My question to you is, "Why do you think so many of Senator Clinton's supporters would rather vote for Senator McCain as I am doing, despite the fact that your policies are more similar than his are?" My answer is Experience and Trust, what's your take on it? 
(Anonymous) Why does Sen. Obama want to raise taxes when I can't afford much of anything as it is? Doesn't he understand the simple economic principles? 
(Anonymous) Since you are the ultimate authority on security and international relationships, what will you be looking for in your Secretary of State? 
(Anonymous) What are the best principles of the Republican party and how do you draw from them as an elected official? What are the guiding principles of the Democratic party that you draw from? 
(Harry - Urbana, IL) Questions for Obama: Why don't you ever come up with solution for current issues by yourself instead of copying other's ideas? What do you think of the quality of a senator who voted "present" for "yes or no" questions? Are you afraid to tell American what your true thinkings about arguable issues? 
(Anonymous) What are the most important qualities of leadership that you will bring to the Presidency if elected? 
(Anonymous) What makes you love America so much that you would run for President?

It doesn't surprise me that you just happened to get this off of the RNC's web site.

I like the one that includes Hillary, not loaded at all, and "what are the republicans doing right?" that's a nice fair one. There are a number of slow pitches there too, I'd expect tricks from the rnc, maybe they're keeping the good stuff in reserve, but this makes me worry about the money I have on them.

Have you come out of the closet about being a Hillary supporter?

Most of these are quite easily answered.
